Just don't want you offending mb135is is all. =P At least you didn't call it Mineral Grey cause then you'd have to face the wrath of me, Rick, and potentially BP if he's lurking out there somewhere.

And your car looks sooooo tiny next to those two trucks. I'd also crap my pants if I saw my car sandwiched in like that, making my interior look probably pretty similar to that one up above for sale. With that comment, I've now come full circle.
Thank you for watching my back hahaha

I really like that color combo.

I've always liked terracotta, and that's the first I've ever seen of it on a space gray. Usually see it on white or one of the various blues though.

Bet you like this combo better! And are longing for a convertible right about now in the dead of winter, too.

my original order was Deep Sea Blue with Terracotta.....until BMW told me they could not make the car as Terracotta had been discontinued. that was the 518th saddest day in my life.

Looks vaguely familiar. Would love. For those wheels and that shine right now. Big snow coming down at the moment but work closed for tomorrow. I'll go out and play on the roads anyway.

If I got alpine white I'd probably have gotten it with terracotta. Does look good with the blues, too. I don't know why they decided to dump terracotta but stay with taupe when there's already savannah beige. I know mb135is will always secretly long for bluewater metallic, too, especially after seeing that 1 photo on earth of an IS in it from a forum member who disappeared soon thereafter.

You probably won't want to see the pics I'll be taking and showing off then in the next couple of days of the 313s with the performance rotors cause it looks amazing. Kept the stock calipers though as I didn't want to steal owen2001's thunder with his "performance" yellows.

I always wanted to order AW w/ Terra. Unfortunately I could not order one when it was still offered. As much as I love my car I feel that it is only 95% perfect.

Anyone here put the BMW Performance side skirts on? Looks like they are pretty reasonably priced, but do need painting.

Am I the only one that sees a giant frog face with the lower license plate frame screw caps as the eyes and the diffuser as the mouth?

The 135is logo looks cool like that, though I suppose if you wanted alpine white, you'd have gotten it!

Still waiting for those pics! I keep hitting the refresh button every few minutes, hoping to see them posted

My car LOOKS like Space Grey with the heavy patina of salt spray covering the Mineral Grey. Oh well. At least BP probably doesn't need to deal with salt in AZ.

Crap!!! When I'm inside a restaurant or shopping I always imagine going outside and seeing my car sandwiched in between a couple of huge trucks. However, after hearing horror stories about snowplows, salt trucks, and other drivers damaging cars in parking lots, it might be smart to hide your car between two huge objects like this.

I'm jealous of the fairweather 1-ers that aren't dealing with sub-zero temperatures that we're seeing in the midwest and NE...

I'm really happy I got the front and rear bumpers covered in paint protection film. Between that and the oe splash guards, the paint is very well protected. The car sat in dry salt/mud/snow for a week during the last storm and I can't tell you the # of times I've gotten pelted by a salt truck.
