Unfortunately no pictures yet, I returned home to late. I will post some in the morning.

Congrats! I tested the Active Steering and ordered it for my convertible. It is absolutely awesome to have that level of response. It's a fairly expensive option, but it's also an amazing difference!

What's the damage?

I saw that one last week I think, but it had those black wheels...did you swap those out for stock? I think they also put in that black performance shift knob on it as well. Congrats! Its a great car

did you order the CF mirrors separately, or when you ordered the car?

I purchased the car in stock trim. LB BWM swapped the parts at time of purchase (except the shit knob). The stock knob should be in next week.

I did not order the car just decided to buy one on Friday and checked Auto Trader to find a local dealer that had a AW 135I in stock. The dealer had already installed the CF mirrors.

Antslayer · 05-04-2008, 12:55 PM

Congratulations, that looks really great

Litflynt912 · 05-04-2008, 01:17 PM

looks great...

I have an AW 128 and now I know for sure I want the carbon fiber mirrors

thanks and enjoy!

Smallbodybimmer · 05-04-2008, 01:18 PM

I wish alot more dealers would order the cars like that, at least around the initial launch anyway. Mostly enthusiasts are the ones who know about and are buying the car at launch, and most would order it more optioned like this one than how the dealers are ordering them. Would have saved me two moths wait.

EternalSindikit · 05-04-2008, 01:19 PM

nice car! Those CF mirrors really stand out :headbang:

128er · 05-04-2008, 02:25 PM

So what kinda deal did you get?
