My New 135 Coupe

Xsapper · 03-05-2011, 08:47 AM

Hi everyone.. Took delivery of my 135i on Tuesday . I am really impressed with this car so far. Great to drive. Only had time to attach the 1Addicts logo and sort out the pairing of my HTC Desire which took two days.

A few standard phots:

Enjooy it !

Congrats!

tyorll · 03-05-2011, 11:06 AM

nice choice! Enjoy the new set of wheels.

What is HID?

zamboni · 03-05-2011, 11:23 AM

Cool license plate.

Xsapper · 03-05-2011, 11:26 AM

yes thought I could put a screw head between the 11.
Would then read: CE I-IERO (CE HERO)

1SerieStud · 03-05-2011, 11:45 AM

HID = high intensity discharge headlights. I am also surprised to see a 135i without them since the feature is standard here in the US.

Congrats on the new ride and welcome! Looking clean!

Xsapper · 03-05-2011, 11:57 AM

OK. I think we call them Xenon Headlights over this side of the pond. Fitted as an extra for £635.

Xenon refers to the bulb type and the gas inside...HID refers to the technology that ignites them. Some people refer to them as Xenon here in the US as well.

Bimmer_Freak · 03-05-2011, 04:20 PM

Congrats, possibly the first 135i in the world without Xenons! They are standard in Australia although all pictures i've seen from other countries all have Xenons as well.

Enjoy the new ride.

635Q for xenon ?

Xsapper · 03-06-2011, 01:29 AM

Yes that's the book price. Option 522 which also includes headlight wash.
I do very little driving at night so decided to save my money.

They're $900 USD for a 128i here, the UK has the short end of the stick on paying for cars compared to the US

Olagüe · 03-06-2011, 01:40 PM

congratss!

Xsapper · 03-06-2011, 02:07 PM

£635 = $1,033 so you get a good deal at $900

Strykaas · 03-06-2011, 02:45 PM

Why not the newest front headlights with eyebrows ?

dicker · 03-06-2011, 04:01 PM

Because this is a 2011.

Xsapper · 03-07-2011, 01:25 AM

Yep, built second week of Feb 2011

Strykaas · 03-07-2011, 06:03 PM

So that I will have to wait for july 2011 before seeing those eyebrows in real life ?
