Congratulations. Looks great

Was in Perth last week and saw a Sedona red 135 on the road.

Any mods planned?

The Sedona red 135 is the Auto Classic Demo.... Yep will run in and then maybe a tune, really want to wait to see what happens with 29.2/v81 updates. will lower on some good springs maybe HR's. and who knows what else, I did go a little overboard on my MINI :biggrin:

I did see the sedona coupe near Burswood Casino, which is near the BMW dealer and I assumed it was a demo.

Once mine arrives I'm thinking of getting the SSTT.
Also possibly the CF spoiler, mirrors and shadowline grille however, I'm not 100% sure on these yet.

Also started looking at wheel options. I like the BMW performance wheel however they are a bit pricey

Steve's 135i on the road to Boddington

A couple of pics of my white/grey baby on the road to Boddington where it outperformed. Don't you just love/hate those German engineers?

That's Sedona Red? Sheez. I drove it today and was going to look in the brochure to see what they call what I though was Citrus Orange :eyebulge:. Sorry to anyone who's ordered it based on the brochure, but the brochure's not anywhere near accurate!

Steve, how's the grey leather? What do you think of my choice of SGM and grey? Hadn't seen one until this afternoon and was pleased the pregnant pig look wasn't as bad as I'd heard.

SimonB,
We never had the range of interior colours that the US and others had. I had mine on order for 11 months and so had too much time to ogle what was available in the US. I decided I wanted a white car for all sorts of reasons and a lightish leather....and they had lots of choices over there. It's all personal preference I guess but I was after the light, clean, modern look...the "less is more" look. I am very happy with the brushed aluminium too...that fits in well. I guess my car looks a bit like a modern dentists rooms but that's the look I like. I never fancied darker colours....they just don't seem right for such a bright sunny place as Perth....it's personal. Anyway when the leather choices were floated here it was lemon (!!) or grey in the lighter hues so I went for grey.
