335i Coupe, Space Gray, Black Leater, brushed aluminium...

That combo is a very good one & bound to be quite popular! Some of us may choose leatherette, but having alum trim is a great idea with black interior. Dark interiors seem smaller, but the lightness of alum trim balances that out very well...

Now, I just have to wait 6-8 weeks to get it.

At first, I thought about Sparkling Graphite Metallic, but after looking at it in person, it appeared to have a purple hue to it.

Anyway, I am looking forward to owning my first BMW.

Very nice Combo..... See my Sig

I've read that the stupid reflectors on the wheelwell are part of the US pacakge.

When you take European Delivery, are they present or not? I saw pictures of a 335i Sedan that was ED'd, and it did not have the reflectors.

Is that a difference between the coupe and the sedan?

My fiance has family in Regensburg where the 335i's are built, and she wants to do the European Delivery when we buy our next BMW.

The reflectors are part of all the US bound E92s.

NICE

Darklighter · 10-23-2006, 01:05 AM

Wow ... those make the non sport 17's look really small.

335d coupe · 10-23-2006, 05:22 AM

Those 19s are F***ING LUSH!! That's why I'm having 'em on my 335d and SOD the ride quality! (Actually, and on a rather more serious note, I gave the wheel size/ride issue some serious deliberation: I tried E92 coupes with 17s, 18s and 19s - including on some really poor pot-holed English countryside back roads - and there REALLY wasn't much difference in ride quality. OK so the 17s rode a little easier than the 19s, but, to sum it up, the 17s weren't as much better of a ride as I'd expected whilst the 19s were FAR much of a better ride than I'd expected.) And I hate cleaning wheels...so the fewer and more rounded the spokes, the better

Ripinto · 10-24-2006, 01:35 PM

That is awesome. The M6 wheels are without a doubt one of the best looking for this car. I can't wait for my car to arrive!

JASON, do you know what the wheel offset is in the rear?

Gen_E92 · 10-30-2006, 01:53 AM

going to order my 335i sometime nxt month...I'm basically stuck between monaco blue and space grey, with jade grey and grey poplar for the interior. any thoughts?

I know jade grey and space grey is not an official combo in Canada...but i saw some ppl in this forum got it anyways...it'll be great if someone could post some pics for this combo. thx

elmaki · 10-30-2006, 02:23 AM

i'm struggling between the two exterior colors myself.

the space grey/jade grey combo is shown on page 2 of the e92 interior thread, and the jade grey/gray poplar interior is shown on page 5 of that thread...

you should try to view the cars live in monaco and in space grey if you can before deciding (perhaps you already have)... I think you have chosen two of the best 3 colors (along with sapphire) but I am only judging from photos and opinions of people who have seen the actual cars...

hard to go wrong with either color, the monaco will be harder to maintain, but the space grey will be much more common: perhaps twice as many sp grey as monaco here (or on order) in so cal according to computer info posted on another thread... if that helps you decide at all...

I'm taking delivery today of my 328i with Space Grey, Jade Grey with Grey Poplar. So same combo as the one you mention. There was no problem to order this combo. I'm actually changing the trim to brushed aluminum (it was too late to change my order but they will swap the trims as soon as they receive their next car with the aluminum trim). I'll try to post some pics for you.
