I hate starting new topics, but what the hey...

Got hold of the brochure for the new Coupe this weekend and wondered if it was common property yet.

I'm told cars are available to buy now for Late november / Dec delivery.

I noticed a couple of days ago that you can now configure the 135i M Sport coupe on the BMW UK website configurator.

i only poppeed into my dealers parts departmend few weeks back when i saw the m5 touring so didnt speak to any sales advisors?!

i think it will have to grow on me as i HATE the front end of them!!

the rear and side profile look nice tho!!

and no doubt after proceed will be whooping the new m3

I am with you Carlos, I think the 1 series is let down by the front end.

[Z4 Beemer]

I'm really not sure about the 1 series coupe look from any angle. I think compared with the 3 series, it seems very angular with a high roofline, and not really flowing at all.

It might appeal to me more over time, but I certainly would love to experience that engine in the 135i

[dxb335d]

wonder how much lighter the 135i is compared to the 335i?

with a set of rims and slammed it will look quite cool

[Z4 Beemer]

I think the biggest size of wheels available for any 1 series is 18".
19" might really look that part on the coupe.

from every angle apart from the front

according to the brochure the height is 1423 (135i is 1408)

compared to 335i = 1384 (that's the e93 fig but it's probably much the same as the e92)
