If I pickup a 135i, I'm going to miss the screaming 7000 rpm range on our cars. It just sounds like heaven. :biggrin:
Yes but as I have stated in other threads, I refuse to own this car out of warrenty. My 99 is SO much cheaper to work on. My vanos was just replaced under warrenty for almost 4K. Out of warrenty? No thanks

I think the 135i is very appealing as a small tossable pkg. I actaully end up driving my 99 more then my 05 for the feel.

Couldn't agree more on the cost of maintenance on my M. $$$ if you take it to the dealer... $$ at private shops.
I'm hoping the 135i will be similar to the E36 for tossability

CB/Cin is my favorite color combo (that or CB/IR), but I couldn't turn down my car b/c of the options it had and the price I was able to negotiate

Something is covering the passenger seat, but here's another decent picture of terracotta with gray poplar. Not sure which model this is either.



I really dig this combo for some reason. Definitely has panache:biggrin:

Not sure about the leather color, but I'm likin' the poplar grey...

Colors are almost impossible to evaluate on a computer monitor. Monitor settings are way too variable, as are exposure settings and the flash and lighting effects on cameras.

See then in person before you burst an artery...

Thank you for posting this. "Terra" is the color the 1er is getting. "Terracotta" is another misprint in the US brochure. Look at any international brochure or web site; they all list the color as "Terra". Terra is a wonderful reddish brown:wub:; Terracotta is that awful orange marmalade color .

Look a few posts up. Looks like Terra(whatever) is not an option.

OK, so now the Ordering Guide doesn't even list a Terra OR Terracotta. So I still stand by my assertion that worst case scenario is it's a priority one order since it's available everywhere else.
