Talking Picked up my new black 135i today!

Traded in my E90 328i for a new 2011 135i - Black Sapphire Metallic over Savanna Beige.

I'm really happy with my decision. This car is fast, comfortable, and handles very good. I was going to wait for a 1M, but got a very good deal on this because the face-lifted LCI 1ers will start shipping to dealers soon.

Break-in oil change with Red Line 5W30 at around 1200 miles for sure. 35% tint is done. Clear bra and headlight protection film will be installed soon. Gloss Black BMW Performance Grills are ordered. AFE drop in air filter for N55 engine ordered from Bimmerworld so it breathes better. Going to install my 12mm Macht Schnell spacers for a better stance after the holidays. This summer I plan on lowering it on Eibach Pro-Kit springs. May install a BMW Performance Exhaust system because I loved the sound on my 328i. Although the N55 sounds better stock than twin-turbo N54 exhaust. As for wheels, I'm thinking of 19" gunmetal CSL style with 225/255 tire combo.

Here she is at home after delivery! These are just some BlackBerry pics.









Here's how I plan for it to look when it's done. I like to keep mods clean and simple.

Sweet! I really like the wheels you are planning to put on (I assume you are changing them to what's in the picture). I bet it is really fun to drive.
