Another New 135i Owner

Hi all -

I thought I'd share some pictures of the first drive in my 2011 135i in Le Mans Blue. It's got a black leatherette interior (no Value package in Canada) with M Sport, Premium and Sound packages. It's the first car I've owned that I'll drive simply for the sake of driving it. Wow.





Cheers,
Bryan

Same with me when I first got it, and even after 2 years I'm just loving it more and more, especially with constant mods and upgrades

your car looks really sharp, I love the rims!

Thanks for the compliments. I love this new little car.

I installed Elbrus I05 18x8 wheels with Blizzak 225/40R18s on each corner for winter. I'm glad they look nice, but count on them to perform well in ice and snow - I need to stay between the ditches.

Now I just need to decide whether to tint the windows or not. I've done it on my past cars, but I'm liking the clean look of the car now. We'll see...





Cheers,
Bryan

Thanks again guys. I've got the car booked in for tint on Monday. I'm going with 28% on the back 5 windows and getting clear protective film on the headlights (the rest of the front fascia was done at the dealership).

Has anyone added paint protection film to the back of the wheel arch to prevent rock chips where the panel curves back under the car? I'm going to try to mock something up for the tint place to install next week.

Cheers,
Bryan
