Hi everyone. Live in a suburb of Cleveland, OH USA. Primarly a VW guy for many years but this will be my first BMW, although I did have a 2002 Cooper S. I placed the order today for a 135i in Alpine White. I'll miss my current Golf R32, but I'm pretty confident I'm making a good decision here.

atr_hugo · 11-30-2007, 11:04 AM

WELCOME PAUL. "WELCOME TO THE MACHINE" lol

hpoole · 12-04-2007, 08:54 PM

Have owned an '85 325e, '97 328is and currently a 2003 525i... can't wait to manually shift again. On list for a 1er.

dmoruzzi · 12-05-2007, 06:49 AM

I have been without a Bimmer for far to long. The last season I raced autocross was 2003 which was the year my first was born. I'm hoping that come April I'll have my new 135i coupe and be ready to autocross again.

I have one concern. The overheating issue. This car will not be my daily driver. It will see some racing action. I'd like to do my first driving school. So will BMW have a fix for this by the time they manufacture the car?

Chances are the answer is already on the site so as I dig I'll find it. This car is sick and I'm excited. I can't wait to power through my first on ramp at 60 + mph!

:roundel:

mikeo · 12-05-2007, 08:51 AM

Welcome, dmoruzzi! There are more than a few of us here that plan on using the 135i as a auto-x/track day car.

alter ego · 12-08-2007, 07:19 PM

Hi everyone, I have been a BMW Addict for about 14 years.... happy to be part of your group. I have an order slot but I havn't decided what color to build it.... Leaning toward Alpine/Coral with 6-speed, sport with some basics like heated seats and usb etc. Spring can't get here fast enough.

Hey alter ego, welcome! Your color combo is one that I'm also tossing around. I'll also probably be getting similar options. I'm really not looking forward to the day that I have to make my choice.

alter ego · 12-08-2007, 08:10 PM

Hey larryn.... I couldn't help but notice that you have a 332ti...... That must be a beast and a bit of a "Q ship" too. These are tough decisions.... The best part is all the anticipation of the choices isn't it? I can't decide if I want to make it light outside or dark on the outside. I like the Jet Black with Coral too but I don't want to clean 2 dark cars!!! I'll lose all my hair!!!

M3Newbie88 · 12-10-2007, 10:39 PM

Hi new here.. put my deposit for a 135i last week.. hoping the day to pick it up would come faster.... currently own a Acura TSX.. modded to the ground lol.. but nothing like this little car..

Looking to get a black 135 with coral red interior.. friend just got a 335i and it looks sick in that combo thou i am a fan of the color white.. 3 of my previous cars were white..

mikeo · 12-11-2007, 09:04 AM

Welcome! White is the new silver according to some auto-gurus.

The only problem I had with white compared to darker cars is that nice gloss/shiny you get after you wash and wax your car...

12-11-2007, 05:10 PM

Howdy!

I live in Lawrence, KS and this will be my first BMW. Unlike most of you all I plan on ordering a 128 in the fall. I will definitely be taking advantage of the ED program
