Hi Bobbo!

Thanks for the pictures of the steering wheel! Looks much better than the prototype version installed in the 1 series at the beginning of the thread.
Where did you make the pics? Do you have more Information on the various functions of the wheel?

wow! Steering wheel, slim seats (good for legroom too in back i bet!) and that front numper. Superb. Shame they didn't keep the old school gurneys along the hood made of black material, those were nice retro touches! Great to see this being developed further, hope the wheel can be put on the 3 series too..

What I want to know is: how will this compare to the e92 M3?

I think it doesn't look too shabby, but I liked the concept tii car much more. The bumper removes some of the "retarded fish face" look to it. Still, can't get past that bubble of a greenhouse.

If you ask me, the E90 is also a kind of ugly car (especially from behind) but I still love mine, I can't wait to drive a 135i I'm sure it will be amazing.

Has anyone else noticed the nice painted brake calipers on the 135? Are the new 335's getting those too? Finally BMW figured out how to make a decent looking caliper. My car has the old hunky looking cast blocks on it...

They also are brembo brakes, so maybe thats why they get the special paint job.

Seats are useless if they're not cut for a 5 pt harness.
