Shift Knob

[wrx4sale]

I have seen two different shift knobs on interior pictures of standard transmission 135s, one is all black leather knob and one is a two-tone black/silver knob. Does the all black knob come with the sports package? Is it not available in the US? What's the deal?? I'm sure this was covered already, but I couldn't find it.

P.S. I'm taking delivery of my 1 in a week and couldn't be more excited:roundel: thanks you 1addicts for keeping me sane these few months

The 2 tone black and silver is the BMW performance shifter and it's an aftermarket part for the 1 series (and probably 3 series).

No I think he's referring the standard "silver" knob that comes on the 128i and 135i vs the all black perforated leather M knob that comes with the 135i ZSP package. Your car should already have the M-knob if you got the sport package, but anybody who didnt get the ZSP knob could easily add it later if they wanted (I probably would...looks cool.)

Oh well dang, then I haven't been paying enough attention, lol.

I wasn't aware there were two possible shift knobs. I would defintely get the sport package, so i haven't actually built a car online with the standard knob.

You on the Mignon? My 135 is and should be at the dealer on the 30th.

Look on the configurator - it will switch the knobs when you add/delete the sport package.

Well would you look at that, thanks!

135i knob (my car has the sport package, but I'm not sure if that makes any difference on a 135)
