Awesome. At last, revealed, confirmed.

Sheesh, was it too much for BMW USA to confirm with AG of the oil cooler then inform those who ordered the 135 w/Sport ?

congrats on the car, that under-arm center ipod holder is standard or self-made?

But wait a sec - has anyone confirmed that 135's w/o sport package do NOT have the oil cooler?

I didn't order sport package with mine because the 135 already has the sport suspension tuning standard, as well as the 155 mph limiter.

I will be a little miffed if mine doesn't have the oil cooler. Why the hell exclude that on a car that has the same engine and same 155 mph limiter as one with sport package? AND - never document it officially ANYWHERE so we had no way to be sure what we were ordering.

I shall reserve my angst for my pick-up day (Tuesday).

I dont think its been confirmed with an actual vehicle on the ground, but its certainly what BMW NA told me when I confirmed that we would get an oil cooler.

Dear Mr. Valentine:

As a follow-up to your earlier inquiry, we have been advised that the 1 Series will
be equipped with the secondary oil cooler provided that the vehicle is equipped with
the Sports Package. I hope this helps.

If you have any further questions, please reply to this e-mail or contact the
Customer Relations and Services Department at 1-800-831-1117, Monday through Friday
from 9:00 A.M. to 9:00 P.M., Eastern Standard Time. Again, thank you for contacting
BMW.

Sincerely,

Darlene Hawley
Customer Relations and Services
Representative

And you had to drive all the way back to Ardmore in your new 135i? Bet that sucked :wink:

Congrats, asv - it's a beautiful car inside & out.

The video is coming shortly. Its unedited and boring, but I do show bluetooth pairing and ipod integration.

How is the stereo? 6 speakers? 8? 10? Inquiring minds need to know...

W00t!

I'm really glad I ordered SGM + Terra... that combo looks GREAT.

*edit* Funny that it looks Terra in the pictures, but clearly it's RED in the video!

THIS IS MAKING ME SO F*****G JEALOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow it's lovely, congrats asv - nice video too! enjoy yourself!!! *jealous grin*

My SA said my car would be in production mid-March so I thought I had time to make changes to my order. So in early-March, I changed from AW to SGM but he said my car was already in production.

I told the SA I'm a bit hesitant in paying MSRP for a custom configured car and not even getting the color I want! He's pissed but oh well.

I just have to get SGM.

Ouch, that stinks. It does look really nice in SGM though, I had originally wanted SGM. :smile:

I am from NE PA originally. Now i live in TX, I used to live in a town about 15 minutes outside of scranton....where are you from?

Chicago1 · 03-16-2008, 01:17 PM

In that close-up of the front wheel - is that a hint of brake dust already? How many miles do you have on it so far? My 135i SGM is on order now, but driving a Saab 9-3 Aero and my biggest pet-peeve is keeping the damn wheels clean.. .hope it's not going to be a big problem on this car. Anyone know if we can get some inexpensive ceramic pads for this car to keep those wheels shiny??
