Build your own 1er coupe

Sorry to burst your bubble if you thought I had the "inside scoop" on the "build your own" feature for the 1er coupe. I don't. Anyway, thought it would be cool for members to build their very own 1er coupe to their specs listing the features, mods, whatever their heart desires.

My 1er coupe (likely subject to change - depending upon what ideas I get from others )

My 1er coupe:

135i M sport, 6 spd auto:

Factory options:
-Space Grey
-Jet Blk. leather
-Aluminum trim
-Sunroof - this I could do w/ out, will see.
-I pod adapter
-Xenons

Mods:
-H&R sports springs - looks like it may sit low enough already.
-Eiesenmann exhuast - A straight pipe installation may be all that's necessary to get more audible "oomph".



Now to make it happen.... in time.

Same here.

Except with the M body kit and suspension, no climatronic and no special HiFi. I'd also want mine to be a 120d.

Re: Build your own 1er coupe

Mine would be a 3-door 120i with M-package for obvious reasons

Re: Build your own 1er coupe

Still deciding on color & other features ...

One minor change: replace Jet Black leather with Coral Red. Much sportier and classic look.
