AW135i 6 speed fresh off the truck

Here are pics of my AW135i 6 speed at the dealer fresh off the truck. I requested tinting so the car will not be ready for another couple of days. The dealer is BMW of Dallas. My only complaint is that i ordered glacier silver trim and my car ended up coming with gray poplar. So Now i will make my CA compensate me either with free front clear bra or buying me the silver dash trim.

Wow 2snail that looks great man. Kinda cool to see the plastic still on the seat and the tape on the steering wheel Roundel. Tomorrow, I'm going to my dealers lot to see if my car is there yet.
I'll take pics if it is.
good luck with it.

Nice car!! Looks like AW with terra? That's the combo I am thinking about. Your signature says glacier aluminum, but the car looks to have grey poplar?? Did you change your mind part way into the process?

Read the first post.. he explains that.

Btw, I agree with you about AW/Terra.. I have it, and love it. That car is Coral though, which looks very yummy too!!

2snail, CONGRATS!! Looks great!!

Sorry about that! For some reason his post doesn't format correctly on my computer, just keeps going to the right without making a new line.

Yes, I am well aware of yours being AW/terra. I have narrowed it down to AW/terra vs. Montego/Savanna. I keep looking at your car on a regular basis to help me decide. This weekend I might try to go to the local dealer. Their website says they have a CPO 2006 330 with Terra interior, so I can try to see it in person.

That sucks that the trim didn't work out for you.. If you want Aluminum trim I have a set for sale in GREAT shape .. Check out my post I would sell it for half or even less than the dealer would sell it to you for. That is if thay do something other than an interior swap for you.. http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12276

GOOD LOOKING CAR ALSO

ok guys an update..After talking with my dealer they agreed to give me the clear bra free. I should have the car tomorrow. The tinting was done on monday. I went with 30% black ceramic tint on the sides and 20% on the rear window. Although I would have liked the aluminum trim the grey poplar was my second choice.. I am still happy I am glad I didnt have to fork over the cost of the clear bra. I will post all the detailed pictures of interior under the hood as well and other angles once I am able to pick it up tomorrow hopefully..
