BMW of Bellevue (WA).....

I stopped in today to see if there were any 1er's floating around and I didn't see any (saw a new M3 though ). So, I asked one of the salesmen and he told me they weren't gonna see any until next weekend. Well, as I'm pulling out of the lot, but what do I see? A black 135i sticking out of the back of an enclosed car carrier.....they were getting their 1st (and only so far) 1er! Apparently the salesmen was misinformed :iono:

Anyway, it was pretty well equipped at $41k+. I took some pictures with my camera phone, but there are way better pictures floating around here already.

Garage List
1971 2002  [0.00]
2004 M3  [0.00]
2008 135i  [0.00]
And based on all of the above is exactly why I stopped in at my dealer Saturday to see what they didn't know. At least a 1er wasn't on the premises though an M3 was. Awesome car, too bad it's too big.:biggrin: They are of the impression a 128 demo will be there Wednesday(ish). I'll be checking every day just to see 'what's up'.

Basically I was told it's on a truck. Where that truck is right now is another story. He basically said it could be any time this week. I've got GFs birthday tonight, and Cougar basketball tomorrow night. So delivery comes Fri night or Sat AM

I've been told no test drives until Saturday. It also seems that they have taken the 135i that was parked upfront back to the fenced area...

Went in to BMW of Bellevue on Monday the 14th of April in search of a 135i coupe but was unsuccessful. They had zilch. Not even a demo. They did have a 128 convertible on the showroom floor along with another outside but no coupes. They guy said the 135i "has been pretty popular" and were expecting some possibly this weekend.
I'm pretty much ready to purchase but I need to see it in the flesh...
