Well I kind of unexpectedly joined the 1 family this past Saturday. My e34 DD shat out on me on Friday with a leaking valley pan gasket, and I decided to head to a Mazda dealer to look at an S2000. They were asking way too much so I decided to pop into the BMW dealer next door to see if they had anything I might like. Well, several hours later I ended up driving away in a 135i.

Unfortunately I just have this one picture for now as it rained from about two hours after I picked it up until just before dark last night. Here is a teaser:
Also, what are you guys doing for a no-holes front plate mount? I'm thinking of rigging something up with the tow-hook mount. Shouldn't be that difficult.

Just got my first BMW after 35 years of Japanese cars. Really pumped!
128i with 18" wheels, paddle shifters, some other option that I don't know ( it's a slightly used car).
If you give us a quick run down on some of the things that your car has then we can tell you what packages it has. I didn't learn about have of the options that my car had until I browsed the forum.
P.S. I'm a long term Honda guy and I'm still in shock at how nice my 135 is then anything I've ever owned. My 09' Civic SI that I use in the winter seems like a pulp wood truck now.
HI! just got a 08 128i manual. nice to bee here.

Still an awesome car (except for the Nav System which has always been shit).

Just got this a couple months ago, and am straight-up enthralled with this car. Coming from my slightly modded 1998 prelude v-tec, I got very lucky to find this (out of the blue btw) with 22K miles and it's exactly what I wanted to be sitting in. Soon, I'll be installing an intake/exhaust upgrade and stage 2 ecu program, plus smoking the windows out (low-medium to match the paint job), and probably drop it a bit with new coils. Next spring... i'm gonna be looking at a whole new animal.
Any insight on my aforementioned mods, or if you're in Chicago and want to run... holler!
