who's getting the first 1er in Canada?

raisemyrent · 03-22-2008, 03:02 PM

oh, we ARE getting headlight washers!

looking at AW, it would be awesome if your car didn't have the orange side on the headlights... like in Europe... I hope my black car contrasts well with them.

Looks great you lucky #@#&. The white matches the snow nicely!!!

^ Good name for an AW 1er, Knut. Of course we're talking about the grown up aggresive Knut - not the cuddly one as pictured below. ; -)

Thank you for your mature and constructive criticism. You are both a gentleman and a scholar.

Vanja G, nice ride! I stopped in at BMW Waterloo this morning (around 10) to check it out. Gorgeous! I noticed that the Canadian 135i with M Sport Package gets "M" entry sills. I thought only the Euro 1 series got that...nice surprise. I also loved the glacier aluminum trim.
Can't wait for May!

I find it really funny how they do little things like that different in each market. They're probably sitting around a board room table saying "you know, I don't think we'll sell any 1er's in Canada unless the M pkg. has M door sills, the Canadians just wont settle for regular ones!" :biggrin:

Very nice vanjaG. I approve of the lack of a sunroof (and will be interested to find out how much effect there is on curb weight).

Vanja G, can we get pics of the glacier aluminum trim please?

Congrats on the car!

Dude i hope you are right and your SA is not feeding u BS. My car is supposed to be in Halifax beginning of April.... But my buddy ordered a 335 last year and it took like 3 weeks to get here once it hit halifax, granted some things could of caused this delay but my SA even told me straight up it takes MININUM 2 weeks to arrive by train.Hmmm, i hope he is wrong though. Hurry up Elektra!!

raisemyrent · 03-26-2008, 09:16 PM

my SA said things that concur with what 135iowner says, in terms of how long it takes for transport.

Brilliant comment.

cks0213 · 03-27-2008, 02:02 AM

my sales guy said for sure it will be at halifax on April 10th!
but it has to get on a train that takes 7days...
But!! they don't know if there is a train available right away!
so... if there is a train right away good! if not... like what you said... it will take much longer......
My dealer said that I will get it at the end of April... so...
if I'm lucky and the trains is there! then April 18th!
if not....another a week or two added to that i guess!
Good Luck to everyone's 1ers...

mtla4 · 03-27-2008, 08:32 AM

Put it this way to get cars from Halifax to montreal=3 weeks. Mine arrived on March 22nd will be at the dealer around mid april
