Looks great. I love M5's interior with lemon leather? Looks inviting and comfortable. I also love the kind words from M5 owners.

Welcome tvas! Both cars are gorgeous. Nice effort on the 135i to get it tii-looking. Are you planning on adding a tune to the 135i, and if so we'll be extremely interested in you telling us how the car feels accelerating compared to the M5, which is beastly when you hit the accelerator.

I don't think that's CF, since the roof is black as well. I think either paint or vinyl overlay.

If it is CF That's pretty ballsy to replace the roof with CF.

Looks like four style 67 fronts (8x18 ET47) from the E46 M3 are the correct fitment too.

thx for the respons

Its vinyl overlay.. and its looking like carbon fiber... the car is normally black, but i got vinyl all, over it... i have had a 05 m5, and drove 107.000 km in that, i was so pleased with the m5 i switched into a new one...

I think i will get a RD chip for the 135i, which later on will become my wifes daily driver... the chip should manage to give 385 hp, and 550 nm torq.

135I vs M5, the m5 pulls hard, buts a big car, so it just thrills you in straight lines.. but its a heavy track car, compared to the 135 i... and the low rev´s the 135i beats the m5 for sure...

and i can drift both of them, round a track with smoke all over...

I have a 323ti compact, with 3,2 liter m3 engine, drivetrain etc, etc.. we are mounting a turbo on it, and it will give me 600 hp, and 800 nm, to 1250 kg´s... thats my car i use for trackdays, and i have a Ferrari 360 challenge for racing, in endurance 4. hours races....

hope to see you out there... remember the prices on cars in denmark are high...
M5, 445.000 dollars
135i, 165.000 dollars....
Stupid Danish taxes...

Beautiful garage you have there! I have my 318ti with a 3.2l M3 motor in it, a bit of motor work, full TCKline/Koni suspension, and an LSD. It's a beast. I cannot fathom this car with more than double the HP, as you are attempting to make.

I, have painted the oem rims for the car in, black, with a white outer line.... on... looks cool...

That does sound cool. If you have any pics, please post, as I'm sure those of us waiting for our cars are looking for options to go with them.

I'm not a big fan of black wheels, stock or not, but your cars are still amazing! (displayed ones or stated.) Thank you for the pictures and I will certainly be waiting to see whats next.

I foresee damage to that front quarter panel with adding spacers. Not good.

I think the 135i would look even better if you had a black wheels with the chrome or polished lip. they both look pretty good though.

The car is black. The white is vinyl. I dunno about quarter panel damage. I bet that thing tracks extremely well. It looks like the tires will just clear the fender lip on full compression too.

A CF roof is something I would buy in a heartbeat for this car.

Can you just go out and buy a CF roof? I saw a doc on the process BMW goes through to make the CF roof for the M3. It would cost a fortune to do aftermarket, no?

Another Q: why would you not start with a white car and vinyl the hood and roof in black? Wouldn't that be easier? Or did I miss something?

Really nice cars you got there, not so meny M5/135 in Denmark?? When you drive trough Europe cars "change" when you get in to Denmark, alot of cheap small cars

You got some seroiusly sick car tax system in there, probably highest in the world, right?
