M3 -> 128 Thoughts
I just dropped off my E90 M3 to get its 1200 mile service. Granted, I have not been able to really ring out the engine yet on the M3 but the loaner 128 I have is a lot of fun. Even as an automatic, it has a lot of kick. It seems to handle very nicely and it definitely "throwable". I am pretty impressed with the 128. It would be a great second car to have. I would consider taking both the M3 and the 128 to the track and trading on and off.

I drove a 130i hatch (available here) for a few laps on the track a month ago and was very impressed with its performance.

yeah! i do consider the 1 series alot of fun cars, I thought about it myself... but for a new 128i, I cn maybe do better picking up a used 135i for close to the same cost as a new 128i... also thought about a used mini-S

Out of curiosity, what are the major differences besides the obvious. Is the hatch stiffer? Also, is a 130i the same thing as a 128i engine wise?
