BMW 1 Series Configurator is Live
For the life of me I can’t build a 1 Series with the limited options I want under $40k. Here’s my 135i with the handful of options I’d call essential:
- Alpine White - BMW’s traditional racing color and it looks great on the 135i.
- Sport Package - worth it for the seats but the shadow line trim is a must have as well.
- Silver interior trim - tough choice as the piano black would work well also.
- Red Leather interior - Few combinations nicer than red leather on alpine white. It’s a bit of color inside what could be called a conservative exterior choice.
- Navigation - a must have in modern BMWs
- BMW Assist - the only way to get Bluetooth as a standalone option
- iPod adapter - another must have
- Heated front seats - it’s 19 degrees this morning in Chicago. That’s a good reason in my book.

About BimmerFile
BimmerFile is dedicated to bringing you the most interesting news, links and reviews related to the BMW brand and it's vehicles.We believe in the old school BMW ownership experience. We believe in garage nights with a six pack and some friends. We believe in 2002s, in E30 M3s and E34 540s with the 6 speed. We believe in progress in both design and engineering but we haven't lost sight of what made the brand and its products great all those years ago. And yes, we believe in the manual transmission.
We long for the days of the wave and for the days of roll-up windows. Yet we love the gadgets on the inside and the xenons on the outside.
In short, we can't get enough of BMWs. This is BimmerFile.
