After 3 months, it's finally here [Updated w/ Professional Pics]

CONTROL ONE · 05-28-2014, 09:38 PM

Just arrived and it already passed the first test, it fits in my garage along with my B5 S4!

Love the manual transmission, not a big fan of the shift knob. Will probably end up ordering the the M Performance alcantara one.

Congrats! Looking forward to more pics.

M235i 6 speed, Canadian Premium Package and ConnectedDrive, Tech package.

Already ordered the IND reflector cover ups and looking for the best deal on a set of manual M Perf. pedals, front grills and shift knob.

Moreeeee pics!!

phoenixbmwlife · 05-29-2014, 09:54 AM

I ordered superman also so I'm looking forward to more pics. I did the sunroof delete since I never use it and it should be quieter in the cabin and (prob non noticeably) lighter.

Let me tell you, it is not overbearing at all in person. It's absolutely gorgeous.

Everyone at my office was drooling over it, guy or girl, young or old.

I actually like the sunroof, makes the car feel less claustrophobic.

Now I'm just debating picking up the entire M Performance package for it (CF mirrors, CF deck lid, black grills, alcantara shift knob and alcantara/cf interior).

Awesome ride! I can't wait for mines. We need more people driving M235i in Toronto. I only have seen 1 so far on the streets.

Waiting for mine, it's in production now. I saw a black/red interior in Chinatown on Gerrard last weekend.

I need the sunroof so my 90 pound puppy can check out what's going on outside.

I was walking down the street and heard a nice sounding car behind us. Was an M235i. I just pulled the trigger and ordered the car that morning so that made me happy.

Hahaha awesome decision making. Make sure to order the M performance exhaust, worth very penny.

Thank you, to be honest, I haven't seen any besides mine.

That's a nice colour combo as well.

Ya, my 20lb Italian Greyhound probably wouldn't have the guts to do that.

Just pulled the trigger on the following:

1. M Perf. manual pedals
2. M Perf. alcantara/cf shift knob
3. M Perf. black kidney grilles
4. M Perf. alcantara/cf interior trim

Might pick up the spoiler and mirrors later on. Just not sure how they would look on Estoril blue. I actually kind of like the grey mirrors and low profile deck lid.

Totally agree. I was getting really nervous while waiting for mine to arrive, seeing everyone bashing the superman combo. But when I went to take delivery, all my fears were put to rest. It's really a great looking color combination. Congrats on yours! (And you'll love the black kidney grilles... super sharp.

)

Updated top with some professional photos I was able to get when I crashed an Audi meet last night. More to come tomorrow.

I love the new shots! My gf has been bugging me about my decision of the coral red, saying I should have gotten black. Looking at your professional shots your car really does look amazing and I'm so happy now with my decision.

Looking forward to more pics with the mods installed.
