Looks quite under-wheeled, hope we don't get those wheels in the U.S.

Doesn't look like this car photographs well in Black either. Probably looks great in person though, as with all modern BMW's.

Very good in black too. But very common color for BMWs in Greece.

totally under-wheeled, but where's the problem? I'd never have a BMW under 18''...
for me, it seems that this is a preproduction an low-equipped press demonstration car...

Nonetheless, the colour's nice and the Shadow (s on the Wall) Line looks better than that Chrome Line...

Ya I think we're seeing standard 123d wheels - one step up from steel with plastic covers. 128i will have standard 16" with optional 17". 135i will have 17" with optional 18"...

I suspect the 1 will follow the pattern of the 3 (at least in America) where the 335i has chromeline and 328i has shadowline, as opposed to the 5 where the shadowline is associated with the sport package regardless of series.

I actually like the chromeline on the 135i.

In the dealer info posted in another thread it shows that the chrome trim is standard on the 123d,135i and optional on 120d. However, still no information for US models.
