man never thought i'd desire a newer car, but the 135i is calling my name....

[Pantless Spency]

god damn its so sexy and the chassis with power combo has me going bonkers...

I'm not sure which body style i would want most.... but whatever it is i want that damn 6 speed manual...
2011 model has a dual clutch 7 speed model? but i red on and its only tip-tronic and so forth, garbage.... these things seem like they would make amazing DD/track cars.

what is r3vs thought on the 135i?

[glucklich21]

Well my E90 335i with a 6 speed is just tits. So by association a 135i would be too.

My buddy has a one and my god the brakes. They can and will rip your face off. Going from my car to his at the track I could not believe how well they grabbed. The 335i already has larger brakes than the rest of the E90 fleet. I don't understand why BMW didn't put the 6 pots they have on the 135i on it as well.


Anyway they are still available in a stick, the 7 speed is optional.

god i want so much...
imagine how sick this car would be with some 18x10 borbet A's and slammed, also some e30 sport style modern recaro's.
fuuuuuck i wish i had money.

They look great in white. Not sure why.

Whats up with these threads lately? Everyone wants a newer car now and is asking for r3v's opinion? I'll make sure to have all my life decisions approved from r3v from now on.

[VinniE30]

You can't even get one of these without a sunroof. Gay.

[Pantless Spency]

^^ i make no where near enough money to even begin to think of owning this car lol.


just a thread about the 1 series and perks/disadvantages, just small talk, general forum talk ;)

Yes you can. For every standard extra there is a delete option for it.

Had the fortune of driving one and I too was impressed with the braking; which is what pisses me off about Forza because in that stupid game the freaking thing brakes horribly; which happens to be the only place I can afford to own one.

+1 Always thought white cars were pretty plain Jane until my uncle rolled up in a white 135i.

[nrubenstein]

Meh. Open diff ruins the whole thing for me. That and the hpfp issues.

[kingston]

I prefer these in black over white. The black hides the saggy mid-section of the car, which is just hideous IMO. Other than that, yeah, pure effing sex!!

Test drove a 2008 135i with M-package in Germany when they were newish.. thing was fucking ridiculous. I have wanted one ever since. The cars just look great, and the interiors are practical. The power is just right, not too much, and definitely not too little.

Verdict: Do want.

[BoxDriver86]

We are putting my wife in a 135. We just need to find the right car. She likes the Mtech package seats better and we're having a hard time finding one for the right price. After driving it, I am fighting the urge not to get one as well.

The handling is sharp and responsive, the brakes are fantastic, the interior is comfortable as well as inviting and driver-centric. They look great as well. When the price comes down a little more I may grab a 128 as a daily.

[F34R]

I have always wanted one and one day I will =) One of two new BMWs I would own. Other one being the M3...
