I'm afraid I won't be the first to take delivery. I believe there're 4 other austinites before me, and my SA told me that this first batch is due to arrive here on either 19th or 20th. One thing for sure, I'll be down there first thing to check it out, since I haven't even seen the car in person yet!
Oh, first impressions and photos will sure to follow after taking delivery
I'm happy to say I was one of those 4, I picked up my SGM 135 on 3/19. I'm amazed at how little effort it takes to make this car go fast.

That's one of my favorite roads in Austin. In fact, when I picked up my '99 M3 in October '98, I went STRAIGHT there to drive that road before heading back to Houston (where I resided at the time). I also love 2222 and Mt. Bonnell road (drove that last month in my E46).

Dallas here! Have been tearing myself apart about this new 1. I'd have to pay close to 20 grand premium if I traded/sold my car to get one. Sigh...

Keller, TX here(DFW). I ended up going with the SRT-6. Does anyone with a 135 want to run em'? Just for fun.

Or you can meet us out at Ennis(1/4 mile) for fast Fridays, we have a few guys that go, myself included.

Yea, Texas.....Bigger than France!!

I'm so happy! I ordered my 135i in Temple, Texas, today for ED in June (I hope). I have one week to commit to colors. Anyone in Austin area have blue water metallic? Does it look great in cloudy weather?

Ya'll have fun driving those fast cars across the Lone Star State!

i'm pretty sure there aren't any bluewater metallics in austin (not in 135 anyway). i did see an e92 m3 w/ that color (or very similar). i still have yet to actually see a 1er on the road here. i'm basing my claim on a conversation i had w/ a ca at the bmw 1er, m3, and x6 event the other day.

My car will arrive on Monday, hope to take delivery on Friday. I was right behind a 135i about two weeks ago, so I won't be the first Montego blue in Austin.
