ship delayed

My ship is being delayed from Jun7 to Jun10, not a big deal but frustrating nonetheless!

Do any of you know anything about some special "badging" for the Series 1? I saw something on the web, but have not been able to find it again. It said that the 2008 Series 1's will have a special notation on the ignition button, as well as a "certificate of authenticity." Also, a commemoration book will be sent to buyers later in the year. Do you who have rec'd your cars have this stuf?

All the first model year 1-Series have "Year One of the One" engraved on the start button surround. As for the certificates and/or the books...I don't think anyone has seen those yet.

Cancelled my order from 04/24/08 with BMW North and gave a new order to BMW West. BMW North just sucks...

Seen a few on the North side of town. Often see an AW 128 Vert on Cypresswood drive, a Montego 128 at the intersection of Sawdust and Grogan's Mill (beautiful color in person) on 6/8 and a AW 135 parked in from of the Brownstone's on Timberloch Pl (adjacent to The Woodlands Waterway Lofts). Sadly, the AW 135 had front-end damage and didn't look like its been bathed in a while.

With regards to the cancelled order, gosh I wish I could trade for your your allocation! Ordered my SGM 135 on May 6 and not expecting delivery until mid-Aug. The wait is killing me!

I just picked up my 135i today from BMW West She is beautiful! Wow, there needs to be more time during the day so I can play. I can't believe it!

I'm pretty sure I'm the only person in west Houston/Katy with a 1er but if there are others, hit me up

I'm in Bear Creek (Eldridge & Clay), it's fairly far west but not quite Katy.

I saw a red 135 about a month ago at the new outlet mall on 290 but so far, that's the only 1 I've seen on the road.

A bunch of BMW's are getting together this Saturday morning at the Starbucks at 23501 Cinco Ranch Blvd in Katy for coffee. I'll probably get there about 9:00 AM. We'll probably be there for a while so if your awake and mobile...come on over!! I think right now I'm the only 1-Series...?!

Weather is supposed to be great, all you Addicts should come on out!!

1-series sighting

I've seen a white convertible parked on or near Sunset Blvd in the last couple of months. That makes two in my neighborhood.

I've had mine now for 3 weeks and am enjoying it very much. It has attracted lots of appreciative glances.

I plan to meet with you folks tomorrow morning, assuming I can force myself to get up early enough!

Well don't be shy when you get there! Just look for a bunch of noisey car people and ask any of them to point me out (Dan Baker). Looking forward to seeing another 1Addict there!!

alarm installation in 1's

Have any of you had an alarm installed in your 1 Series? My dealer seems to be having difficulty "programming" an alarm I requested. Other cars I've owned had alarms, seemingly with no problems. Any comments?
