skiguy1981 · 01-13-2009, 01:39 PM

anyone from chicago or even IL here?

shawshank772 · 01-18-2009, 06:19 AM

Ha, I dont think there are. I am from Chicago but in Iraq. I think I went to the first and only meeting. There were about 8 or 9 of us I think.

bluemoon · 01-18-2009, 09:45 AM

I'm in a NW Chicago Suburb!

DJRun135 · 01-18-2009, 07:42 PM

I live in Naperville. You won't see me driving till the snow is gone! It's covered and stored in heated garage.

J312 · 01-19-2009, 08:19 PM

I guess I'm number 4.

J312 · 01-19-2009, 08:21 PM

I take mine out in the Chicago Snow on occasion. It keeps the battery charged and helps me enjoy the car. I just wish the dealer gave car washes when its this cold.

J312 · 01-19-2009, 08:25 PM

Anyone want to hit up a Cubs game at Milwaukee in April. We can all meet in Chicago and drive up together?

TPLSM3 · 01-20-2009, 11:06 PM

I'm in the western suburbs. Normally see me anywhere between Plano & Naperville. Won't see me out either till the snow is gone.

DRZZZ · 01-20-2009, 11:09 PM

I'm in the western suburbs, also. I am ordering my 135i soon.....

Akien · 01-21-2009, 10:34 AM

North Chicago here. Still driving the 1 now. it is great in snow with winter tires

ChrisK · 01-21-2009, 10:36 AM

I am in the west burbs - my car is in the garage until spring...or until the snow is gone.

ChrisK · 01-21-2009, 10:37 AM

We definitely need a few Chi-Town meets this spring.

skiguy1981 · 01-22-2009, 11:37 AM

Well this is more of a turn out then I thought! I'm also from naperville and picking up my 135 on saturday, I can't wait! Hope some of the snow melts by then : )

I'm from Downers Grove. If you don't mind me asking, where did you get your car and how much over invoice was the damage? I have not ordered mine yet.... You can PM me if you don't want to post it here.

imported_alpine · 01-22-2009, 06:18 PM

we will be in marion, illinois from may to september. anyone been there? if so how is it? i am playing for a baseball team there.

imported_MADDOG · 01-23-2009, 09:45 AM

I have been reading the forums here for a while now but just signed up. Nice to see some Chicago people here. I have yet to see another 135i on the road. Must be the winter, but then again I drive mine in any weather. Cubs game in Milwaukee could be fun.

I'm going to Laurel BMW tomorrow the 23rd to sit down and beat up on their price of a White 135i. I will let you know how it goes.

ChrisK · 01-23-2009, 11:56 AM

Excellent news skiguy1981!

I would truly appreciate it. Good Luck! That dealer is the closest one to my house, also. I have checked out Patrick BMW via emails only and seem to get better feedback from them, though.....

My 135i will be my daily driver. I have never seen one on the road, either.

My supercharged NSX sits in the garage all winter

what has patrick BMW been quoting you? That one is a lot closer to my house I just don't really like the sales staff at that dealership.

TPLSM3 · 01-23-2009, 10:16 PM

I got mine from Patrick BMW....PM me if you need a pretty good salesguy there.

I also know a salesman over at Laurel BMW pretty well.

Thanks for your help but I just got back from Laurel and got a pretty good deal 5% over invoice which is about $1200 over invoice (was shooting for $1000 over), only problem is that I had to order it. I will have it in time for spring though so I'm happy!!
