There are quite few shots on the AC site but colour coded.
Any new shots of the rear spoiler? Does it fit well over the OEM one? How's the carbon weave?

Yea it's a 125i. I'm not sure if there's any for test drive because it's the only cbu model the rest is ckd. I didn't test drive any before I made the purchase. Which branch have you enquired so far?

I have went to Ingress Damansara, Wearnes, Auto Bavaria... Even calling outlets by phone they also don't have, but I'll perhaps just try a GTi to feel the power in a small car... But I'll get the BMW 125i, the interior is just right IMO...

I disagree. It looks normal without lowering, and it is significantly more practical.

Okay, if you count the stock ride height as lowered, I can agree. Our car has M-Sport suspension as well.

But I have had and driven my share of significantly lowered cars, and they do not necessarily perform better with less ride height. A friend of mine crashed his BMW at a rally due to lack of suspension travel.

One of my E30s became faster when I raised it from 60/40 mm lowering to 40/10 mm lowering.

Yeah... gotta agree with you on that... btw, for the 125i M Sport....

Does it come with the following:

1) M Sport suspension - is it adjustable like the 3 series when fiddling with the Sports/Eco Pro button?
2) Servotronic - From the brochure, it states only Electric power steering.

BMW offers both as options, but in some markets the options come as standard equipments. Our 116i M-Sport was ordered without adaptive suspension, and it has the regular, linear, non adaptive steering. I prefer it like that.

Notice that there are 3 steering options.
- Regular steering.
- Adaptive steering (variable assist)
- Variable steering (unlinear steering, slow around center, quicker towards ends)

Yes! But do you mean m - sport suspension as of the ones with adaptive chassis? Or just the suspension?

It's lowered but it doesn't come with the adaptive chassis like the 328i. Only that comes with the adjustable. The ones I have only stiffen the steering when put to sports mode

Not sure about servotronic. What does it do?

Our government strips off the adaptive chassis option for the pricing. Sucks.
Do you mean the steering changes accordingly to the sports and comforts mode?
When I switched the modes to sports the steering feels a little stiffer.
