Before making my purchase a couple weeks ago, I was considering this and the 335i. Had I gone BMW, the 335 would have been my choice. Option for option, the 335i was within $4k of the 135i.
I just couldn't see myself dropping almost $40,000 on an 135i.

Hm... that 3.0TT inline 6 is a rocket for sure. But honestly i think the e92 is better looking, more spacious, more practical... and almost the same price. The back seat on the 335 is actually quite roomy. I'm 6'2 and I could sit comfortably without hitting my head on the glass or my knees on the seats. The 135 felt cramped even from the drivers seat, i didn't even attempt to shoe horn myself into the back... storage space.

Not liking the styling at all. Looks like a broken bathtub sagging in the center.

my friends and i are slotted for a track day w. some demo 135s ... i'll let you guys know how that goes ... my friend is interested in buying one and i'm giving my input on the car ... the other friends doing the track day with us are pretty much just in it for the track time in a car that doesnt belong to them lol

I saw the 135i the other day, didn't drive it but placed an order for a M3. I think the 135i will be a great little car with that engine. But I wanted something more flashy. I mean all my other cars are nothing special so this one car (the M3) will be my all around sport/luxury. I believe the 135i looks odd because the roof seems too tall for the sength of the car.
But then BMW is not against making odd looking cars.
