She is finally here, MB/CR

lambammm · 11-13-2008, 12:05 PM

So after months and months of waiting, she is finally here.

Montego Blue on Coral Red with sports package and nothing else. I can't stop looking at it, damn she fine. Not as flashy as one may think, I'm really happy with the color combo in person. Some things I noticed right off the bat:

-135i is definitely narrower than the 335i, but plenty of space for me
-the cup-holder under the center console is indeed retarded as other people have stated
-the M-shifter is frickin awesome
-there is some slight turbo lag before 2,000 rpm
-the trunk/boot is bigger than I thought
-it is difficult to keep it under 4,500 rpm...
-the sound system isn't as bad as people make it out to be

my first mod? tow hook license plate holder from gominigo.com

note: my nov 09 135i still has the "year one of the 1" ring...for those of you keeping track.

Congratulations! I have the tow hook license plate holder too. Some advice: make sure you either use a stiff license plate holder or put something on the car or over the screws to protect the front bumper. In my first week of having the car, someone backed into it, bent the license plate and left a nice screw head indentation in my front plastic bumper. I protected it from further damage by painting a stick-on rubber foot with touch-up paint and sticking it to the bumper.

Congrats!!!! Enjoy the car.

lambammm · 11-23-2008, 08:49 PM

i actually took some pictures of the car with a nikon d80, but i don't have the memory card slot thing. maybe i'll just do it with a normal digital camera.

can't you just connect the camera to the PC using USB with the memory still inside the camera ? Thats what I do with my D70s

Park2670 · 11-23-2008, 09:51 PM

Its a risky combo, but looks awesome! I have seen a 335 coupe Montego on Coral. I love it.

special thanks to adood84 for pointing out the obvious.
