west fort worth checking in.....
Went to autobahn yesterday, they said they might have one by the end of this week in the showroom. I will probably place an ED order as soon as i get to see the car instead of just pics. |

And another to the Houston list. Ordered my Jet Black135is, Black Boston Leather, 6MT, about 2 weeks ago. Still shows "On Order". Argh.... the wait! Advantage says it should be around the end of April/early May.
Would love to meet up with the rest of you guys (or girls....I shouldn't be presumptive!) |

Hello to all devoted 1ers. I'm from Austin.
Although I'm new to the forum, but I've been glued to this site since Nov 07. My car has just arrived at the processing center, and according to my SA, my AW 135i should be here before the end of the month. So excited!!! |

hey vinman, you might be the first austinite to get a 1er. do you have a set date? i'm getting my car from out-of-town and expect to have it in about a month (built but awaiting transport). i'd love to get an austin group together to check it out. maybe at rudy's (seems a lot of car clubs meet there :P). anyway, please post details when you get your car. thanks!

Absolutely...a group meeting sounds cool. So any reason for going out of town to get one? Better deal elsewhere?
I don't have a date set yet, but I'm expecting to take delivery on March 29th. If everything goes as planned, my SA told me that the car should be here in town by the 26th. I'm also getting the dealer to install ceramic tints, so a couple of days after that sounds about right. 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 am new to this forum so excuse me if I say anything that sounds like a newbie If any of the Houston members could let me know where they purchased their 1 from and if they got a deal below MSRP, I would appreciate. I am planning to head over to North BMW to work on a deal for a 135i and any information or tips will really help. Cheers.

I ended up paying MSRP for the car, no discounts, but I was OK with that. At the very least though, hold out for the free floor mats!! I don' know if anybody else managed to negotiate a discount in town but I haven't heard of anyone yet. We pick the car up at the Performance Center in 10 days (March 27th)!!!

my car is currently awaiting transport. i'm guessing i'll get it mid-april. this wait is painful! and despite not being the absolute first, i'm guessing you just might be the first that also reads this forum. a friend of mine went to the dealership today to get a new lease and she said that they had a 1er! i'm tempted to go visit but think it'll just make the wait harder. |

Regarding test cars in Austin- yes, it's there and a good mix of color/cars too. The 135i is simply STUNNING imho!!!!! I was very worried about the looks at first, since I never seen any 1s before. I was at the dealership..again today. Checking out every little details in the car. They have a pre-sold montego blue 135i. A jet black 135i demo. Pity it's an auto, so I did not test drive it. My own 135i will be my first drive! They also have 2 128i's (1 coupe/1 vert). They all look truly fantastic! BMW really did good this time. I also saw the new M3 coupe. It's great looking and has gorgeous exhaust note, but somehow, the 1 series, being the new kid on the block, looks so much more exciting and refreshing to me. I wouldn't worry about seeing these cars before getting yours next month. I actually felt better because I had so many questions being answered after seeing the cars. I feel more restful in a way |
