That looks interesting.
I couldn't see it in anything other than a white car with a black interior, which I'll admit has an almost "individual" look to it. But trying to picture white trim in a silver or red car with beige interior and it makes me throw up a little bit to think about that. Also it seems some of the LCI changes are sneaking in halfway through the 2011 model year.

No more sport package...lame.
And yes, the AW trim if atrocious. Looks like the accents in a Fiat 500. Also funny/sad that the 135i bases out at 40k, but no longer has leather standard as it did last year.

Sucks they got rid of the value package. Now it looks like you're back to sitting on pleather unless you pay the hefty premium for Boston leather or opt for the "lots of crap i don't need" premium package. I'd much prefer having the real leather over the power seats with lumber adjustment. (I file those things under the "crap I dont need" category)
All in all I'm starting to be happier I pulled the trigger on the 2011. I could always retrofit the newer tails later if I wanted. (I kinda like those) |

Pretty crazy. A 135i used to be $34,900 before Destination back in 08. Pretty soon a 128i will cost that much. |

exactly, this is the car I would have gotten. My brother got a base 135i with sport package for about 36k final deal. I was hoping maybe keeping my 128i for 2 years and then getting a 135i, but at this rate, I am just going to keep my car. the deal I got for my 128i feels like such a bargain compared to the prices now!

great - the base price is increased and then we are double screwed with the elimination of the value package; the 2012 128 will cost $2k+ or more than the equivalent 2011

How much did the base price increased now? It is bad that the Value Package is gone... but looks like the ashtray cover is back?

I guess this is a game for BMW. No more standard leather, however, premium sound appears to be standard, as I have one of the few 2011 135's that came without tweeters on the doors (early build).
It does seem like they are taking away a lot and reducing the value of the packages. Glad I got a 2011! |

Man am I glad I got my convt. when I did!
Mine was an October/November production '11. Didn't want the power seats (BMW's 8-way manual seats are the best in the industry). I got the value package with BMW's full leather trim (not that "leather seating surfaces" crap other carmakers have). The pass-through load might have been nice, and I'd have to see the updated light assy's to determine if there's a marked difference. But for the price mine stickered (not to mention the haggled-down price I got), I think I got the best of the bunch!

The 1M at the Washington auto show didn't have Xenon's but had the new led head & tail lights.

Really want to see what the rims look like.. I liked the 264's alot..
I am also dissapointed to see the sport package gone.. EDIT: Build your own at BMWUSA now allows CSM for M package.. maybe they are in the process of updating the builds. Last edited by MPFit; 02-04-2011 at 09:17 PM.. |
