PICS of my NEW BSM / CORAL 135

Esmallstii · 05-09-2008, 01:50 PM

As Promised Here are the pics.
Picked it up yesterday. AWESOME car,..all reviews on this forum are spot on. Only MINOR thing I dont like is the location of the door handles on the inside of the doors. Too far forward.

Other than that,..car fits me like a glove. Sport Seats are best Ive ever sat in. (Im 5'-10" - 180 lbs)
Fast as advertised although I havent jumped on it yet. Trying to break it in right.
Handles like it's on rails.
Base stereo is even quite good.

Car still needs a proper detailing / Waxing. Got my pinnacle sovereign / Groits Best of Show wax all ready to go (Gotta try em both to see which one I like best)
Whats with the dealers spraying that tire goo all over? The sides of the car were covered w/ it? YUCK!

You can see the Lumber pile under the tarps in the last pic. That will soon be it's new home. Building a 16'x22' Garage next to the house just for the bimmer.

this car looks sooo good in black. AWESOME color choices. I'm digging the piano black trim too

HeyMoe53 · 05-09-2008, 02:32 PM

Looks fantastic!

I think you might like the Souveran wax over Griot's. Souveran really will make it glow. The downside is longevity. Be prepared to reapply within a month. However, it is easy to use.

Enjoy!

hooner35 · 05-09-2008, 03:00 PM

That is mirror shiny!!
Looks awesome.

Brandon26pdx · 05-09-2008, 03:00 PM

The door handles are a common complaint. I noticed their akward postioning as well when I checked the car out at the local dealer.

Art__Vandelay · 05-09-2008, 03:53 PM

Stunning!

jraymond · 05-09-2008, 04:19 PM

WOW, high gloss black w/ Coral is the shit! Congrats!

Templedogg · 05-09-2008, 04:30 PM

Congrats!!! I see you like Corona as well...you have good taste all the way around.

Neo187H · 05-09-2008, 05:31 PM

Nice looking car, I took a peak at it sitting on the lot yesterday(Assuming you bought it at Keeler.)

lilsudds7117 · 05-09-2008, 05:55 PM

great looking car. i saw that same combo at the car show. amazing!!!

m330 · 05-09-2008, 06:44 PM

beautiful!

aallii1991 · 05-09-2008, 06:49 PM

this is a beast! i love it, congrats.

Congrats - great looking car!!

BMW Dreamer · 05-09-2008, 08:05 PM

Congrats, Enjoy the ride.

The gloss black int trim is #1 with Coral. IMO and yours also.

Mystiqueskillz · 05-09-2008, 08:07 PM

Man, I love the Coral Red interior, but black leatherette is free!

Miata13 · 05-09-2008, 08:18 PM

That IS a nice color combo..I've never had a black car and numerous posts of intense maintenance required have me leary of that choice....but it sure looks nice cleaned up. I'd think the BSM vrs Jet Black would be easier to maintain.

That said, I test drove a BSM/Coral Red 128i Step at the local dealer today; both top up and then down. Much quieter than my current ride..hmmm wonder why BMW 6 is quieter than a Mazda 4

Love the sport seats..fit me fine at 5'6" & 190 lbs..and I'll bet someone could have easily sat comfortably behind me too!

Enjoy!

Nice.. Thats what mine will look like..:thumbup:
