i really hope that this board turns into the same thing for the 135i!
Im really hoping this board shapes up like the MKIV R32 board on the Tex as well. Great great insight into every possible noise that the R32 makes. And man does it make some noises, and do some weird things. Gotta love it's quirks though...

I think the 128 with the sport package will be able to hang with the R32. Probably not beat it around a track, since the R32 beat the 330 sport hatch around the top gear track.. But they are a great comparison.
