Saw the 135i on the Road today, SoCal
I was coming back from getting all four of my runflats replaced on my 335i free of charge at Bob Smith BMW in Calabasas, CA.
![]() I was not really impressed by the photos I saw online, but I really liked the way it looked on the road. Definitely had a more upright body than other BMWs. The car is noticeable smaller than the 3 series (big surprise). It had a white BMW plate on the rear. The car seemed to be attracting attention as I was not the only one who seemed to want to get a better look. The driver of the 135i was definitely not going the speed limit. I was going around 90 to try to catch up. I finally gave up because that would be stupid to get a ticket or get in an accident just to get a better shot of the 135i. So that's my story. SoCal members, have you eyes peeled. The 135i is here already. I attached a pic I took with the iPhone. Not the best as it's quite far away. |

Yea, I have seen one on the road as well. After seeing it in person I placed an order.
Here are some pics from an UK owner. Do I have doubts? Yes, of course, but the decision is made and I will put it behind me. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I really do like the 1er with the M-Sport package in white. The rear benefits from the contrast. All in all, I think it'd take very little modding to turn it into a respectable looking, aggressive car. Now bout that rust color...

+1. If it were AWD, I'd have bought that in a second.
