Hey higher ground clearance and it's simply a bmw lol what can I say. Where I live pulling out of a bank drive threw your would crash the front of a z and would be really BAD.

Not to mention the more trunk space than the z.

I liked the info included on C&D better than what was given:

2012 BMW 1-series M Coupe - Prototype Drive - Auto Reviews - Car and Driver

Mr. Mcoupe · 07-08-2010, 11:00 PM

yay for BMW!

If the 135i wasn't seemly riddled with fuel pump issues I would consider one. They don’t look nearly as bad as so many think in person (photos don't do the car justice). Plus you get that awesome / under-rated 300hp/300ft-lb tq inline 6 bi turbo that gives you effortless acceleration from 1200rpms to redline. My choice would be black, tinted windows and then I’d look into suspension modifications to fix the stock under steer and then off with the stock run flats. But I would probably spend a little more on 335i sedan.

Then get one, fix the issues that may arise and drive that sucker fast.

I'm not going to spend 40k on a brand new car just to void my 6yr/100k extended warranty by attempting to fix fuel pump issues on my own on a German made car. Yes I could take it in for warranty repair but that's a pain in the *** and hence one of the reasons for why I haven't bought one. Hopefully, BMW has or is working on fixing the issues and if they do it will be on in my top 3-4.

Alright. Sounds good. Whatever you want to do.

i hate the 1-series headlights

Pushing_Tin · 07-09-2010, 02:26 AM

How much is it going to be?

Red370 · 07-09-2010, 04:25 AM

a 135i with "M" branding... $45k+

Jesse_Hunter · 07-09-2010, 08:38 AM

No thanks, After my Z I'm probably going to look into a slightly used 3 series coupe or an M.

Everyone and their dogs in my town drive 1 series BMW's and C class mercedez, because they all want to look like 30K-ionaires..........

Mr. Mcoupe · 07-09-2010, 09:14 AM

The 1 series is a blast to drive. Maybe more than the 370Z.
