bmw 135 cabriolet

got an email with a link from my local dealer...

so many freaking models starting to roll out... on the internet that is .

The new 1 series is going to be huge for BMW.
The 135i coupe will be a kick a$$ car.
< 3200lb +300hp yada,yada
also standard with M-sport suspension... just look at the 6 pot brakes & huge rotors

[canucklehead]

is this replacing the 335 coupe? if not, bmw will lose a lot of 335 sales to the 135.

i imagine we are talking about at least $10k diff between the two, with the 135 weighing less but with all the same drivetrain equipment.

I agree with you. A bimmer with lower price point, lots of performance goodies and low weight.

I haven't yet come around to the looks though.

+1 Like I said in a diff thread, it's got too many lady humps...the profile is horrendous

I really like it...
Not that it's a sex machine or anything,
but it has much more personality than the 335.

I could see this parked in my garage.

Much cheaper that way, but not so good on the revenue side.

I actually like it but I think it would look much better with a different front bumper or it needs a front chin spoiler added , just to take away from that squared off look on the front end.

ive narrowed my choices down to this car, the new lancer, or the g37. im pretty sure this will be my new car though.

A little different angle..

Much better shot of the front end, it looks so much better in that pic.

Nope...
It's meant to bring a noob to BMW at a price he can afford.
Then up-sell him later.

The price dif will likely be < $5k
It's actually more performance oriented than the 335,
bigger 6 pot brakes rotors & M-sport suspension.
It'll be faster & more nimble in the handling dept.

There'll also be a 128 sister to the 328.

hummmmm , will this 135i be available in a sedan at a more affordable price also,,,,,,,,,I wonder
