M135i xDrive LCI ordered
After three years with my F20 125i and the oncoming end of my current leasing contract, I ordered an F20 M135i xDrive LCI last friday. Mineral Grey and quite full speced. I believe I just missed the adaptive suspension and the park assist out.
Let the waiting time begin! I'll keep you posted! |

Congrats! We've got the exact same spec and ready to order this week.
Saw the LCI and we were both amazed with the new styling. IMO don't wait for the M140. I even suspect this won't come until next gen? |

OK, maybe I'll wait to 2016 for either an Mx40i or an M2.

Yours was the first F20 M Sport I saw... and the mirror I looked at to configurate mine 118i (appart from engine differences) |

Vladberca - only in terms of marketing hype. In reality m135i engines have been same spec as m235i engines since the fitment of ewg and turbo with larger outlet port.....

I'm a fan of the adaptive suspension. Just adds to the flexibility of the car. I test drove a 125 without it, and wasn't too impressed, but that didn't have the M Sport suspension that's standard with the M135i. Just my 2 cents -- it's no great cost to option.

I see your point, but nevertheless I dont think, that i will miss this feature. My current 125 is without the adaptive suspension and im happy with it. I dont want to soften the suspension for more comfort - but thats the only 'advantage' of the adaptive suspension in comparsion to the non-adaptive suspension.

I don't think you miss these options. The ride and handling is pretty good anyway. As some of the others pointed out Adaptive is no big deal. As for park assist, I am not a fan of it. Congrats, it looks like to ticked all the right boxes Now the slow wait starts. |

Hi Mammut,
Do you know why it is not possible to order the ACC plus option with the M135i ? May be it is possible in Germany. Congrats. Best regards sl91 PS: I am also waiting for an almost full spec 125i urban (sport auto transmission + adaptive suspension + M brakes)

There were some rumors, that the loss of this option for the M135i and M135i xDrive models is caused by the higher cooling demands of their engines.
Probably I can take delivery one week earlier as suspected. My dealer told me, that I can pick my car up in calendar week 18. |

This can be an explaination but if this is the reason it should not be compatible with the other models with a similar engine , i.e. 335i, 435i, 535i,...
Congrats for your new car. Best regards sl91
