135i finally ordered today!

[TJS]

After waiting and thinking for a long time, I'm finally upgrading from my 99 Honda Civic, which has been a great car, but it's not a BMW. Had an E12 too until recently (1980 528i), but this will be a great replacement.

Ordered today:
135i
6 MT
Le Mans Blue
Oyster leather
Anthracite wood trim
M Sport pkg
Premium pkg 2
Heated seats
Comfort access

Reading the posts in these forums have been a great help, so thanks to everybody. I paid about 800 over invoice, good enough deal for me.
Very excited, now just a little more waiting!

Good deal and looks like a nice car, I would reccomend getting the Harmon Kardon though!

Sounds gorgeous.
I'll 2nd the recommendation for the HK.
It's pretty amazing!

Thanks.

I thought about the HK, especially since most who have it said it's totally worth it and much better, but decided it wasn't important enough to me for the cost, especially with the required BMW Assist option, etc. Then if I had those options I start to think Nav would be better, and the options start to get out of hand. Most days I drive less than 10 min, so the car itself is already a little overkill for my "needs." Though I may regret not getting the HK like others have said they do... guess I'll find out.

gotta love the HK..it truly sounds incredible in the cockpit

I decided to go without the nav - looks cleaner and more traditional - and the nav system becomes/looks obsolete after yrs...

On a boat headed for Baltimore! Scheduled to get there June 9... How long do you think it will take before I see it (in MN)??

Ill be the first to admit that i regret not getting the HK. The HD radio system sucks.

Agreed the stock radio isn't very good but the HK required also buying the BMW Assist system so instead of $875 it would have cost me almost double that.

If you already got BMW Assist and didn't pay the extra $875 for the HK then yeah that was probably a mistake.
