Washed & waxed crimson

First time since getting the car in October that I finally managed to finish washing it in daylight and take some pictures! Really liking crimson red, especially when it's clean and the sun is shining

Envious that you can get a 135i without the moonroof outside the U.S.

It's an option on the 128 for 2010, but the 135 still comes with it.

Beautiful car... I too will be ordering a CR 135i with M-Sport pkg and no sunroof next month. Great to see what my future car will look like (except for the steering wheel being on the wrong side...)!!!

Enjoy it!!

Thanks for all the positive comments! It sounds like Crimson Red is as rare in the US as it is over here. I haven't seen another CR 135i yet, not on the road or on sale. This made me quite nervous about buying the car initially - I almost went for TiAg with CR/black leather or the classic black on black as they're certainly more popular choices.

However, I'm glad I went for crimson. It looks fantastic when it's clean and is a great antidote to the vile, grey British weather that we have for 51 weeks a year.

I should also add that it's only because of this site - and the crimson red coupe thread specifically - that I was convinced to buy crimson red. If it wasn't for the people here posting their pics and comments, I wouldn't have appreciated what a great colour it is in the 'real world' (press pics just don't do it justice).

So thanks to all fellow CR owners for sharing your cars on here!
