Configured my 135i coupe today

Maximus Decimus · 07-17-2007, 03:23 PM

Went to my dealer here and was able to configure the car on their proprietary software. I don't think anything is available online yet. But I saw what's available and how much.

What can I say.... Well it seems the car in the press pics has the M aero kit and that's about it. The 5 spoke 264 wheels are replaced by split 5 spoke 261M wheels if you opt for the M pack. I think we all knew that already, what I didn't realize was the M package was an additional 550 (euro) on the 135i. All the press materials made it seem it was standard. 550 gets you all the ///M goodies though. Not bad.

The M pack is also available for the 120 and 123, 3,330 and 2,100 respectively and include 17" wheels but 18's are available for more cash of course.

The 2 tone seats are available and are +440 (on the 135i). I have the full ordering guide, but it's all in German (hard copy only and sorry I can't scan it). It should be available at all dealers now I'm assuming, but I can try to answer any availability or price questions anyone may have.

Right now unless I can find a better deal, it's being offered to me at MSRP. With delivery it came to 44,080, but I will have to wait to December or so to pick it up in Munich (picking it up as part of the new BMW Experience which opens in October) as there is some delay on Alpine White.

Congrats! :drinking:

Naturally the options and packages will be different in the US. It would be nice if the North American market could get more options ala carte vs. in packages.

$44,080 Euro.

^^ I think that's exact face I made when I saw the final price since I thought I kept the optional extras pretty light. I think in the US more stuff will be included as standard equipment on the 135i (e.g. I would expect xenon headlights to be std). :frown: for me, :thumbup: for you. :biggrin:

si1972 · 07-17-2007, 03:53 PM

Cool.. do you guys have the same packages as we do in the UK on the 3/5 door?

Visibility Pack
Comfort Pack
Luxury Pack
Audio Pack
Media Pack Pro
Media Pack Business

The 135i msport without options is £29,475 = eu43769 = $60,328 in the UK

Seems a little different here:
Ablagenpaket, no idea what that is.
Advantage Pack
Comfort
Dynamic
M Sport
Dynamic & Comfort Combo
Advantage, Comfort & M Sport Pack Combo

Everything else is pretty much a la carte.

si1972 · 07-17-2007, 04:12 PM

LOL German to English translation of Ablagenpaket: (extra) storage package

Ha!! I knew that, was just testing you. :biggrin: No wonder its only a 130 Euro. It must be like a net or something in the trunk, and a tray between the backseats.

Maximus, from what the BMW USA website tells us, it would appear that our USDM 135i will get the Aerodynamic kit, Sport Package, Xenon Adaptive Headlights, and DSC as standard while Bluetooth and iPhone/iPod USB compatibility will be optional.

All 135's (all markets) will apparently get the M Aero kit and M suspension, etc.. as standard. The M Pack here gets you ///M door sills, knob, etc.. and is 550 extra here. Xenon is also extra. Pretty much anything besides seats, doors, and a steering wheel are extra here.

kere · 07-18-2007, 08:32 AM

What does the 3300e M-pack for 120d include?
44k for a 135i...the 5door 120d starts from 40k here. Damn you germans!

Dinos120ci · 07-18-2007, 08:34 AM

Congratulations!!!

You said 120. It's available from now (I mean the 170HP petrol engine)? If not, can you ask when it will be available?

All the M goodies on the 135. M suspension, M Aero pak, 207M wheels, (17"), anthracite headliner, sports seats, M interior bits, yadda yadda yadda. Strangely there is no mention of the M knob, but my CA says it is definitely included.

120d. Sorry for the confusion. 120d and 123d. 177HP, and 204HP respectively.

rimmer · 07-18-2007, 10:14 AM

As we feared in the UK, and as Dinger said, I spoke to BMW today and the packages are NOT going to mirror the 3/5 Door. Total Bummer!!!!

If you configure a similarly equipped 335 Coupe, how much would it cost in Germany?

I'm trying to gauge not the absolute price via Euro-Dollar conversion, but rather the difference between the 335 and 135.

Many thanks for the info!

I'd guess right around 51, 52. http://www.bmw.de/de/de/index_highend.html Click on BMW Konfigurator.

Base price for the 335 coupe in Germany is 44600, I believe. Not sure about the price with options, though.
