The obligatory questions are N54 or N55, manual only or DCT-7 option.
Would be nice to close out the series this way, and would mean we will not see the new body coupe and vert till summer of 13 as a '14? What about rest of the lineup of 1 series? Since we will have a 2013 what about a 128i with Turbo-4?
For those who paid 70-80k for a 1M this is not very good news, we are talking about pretty much the same engine, and maybe even with a DCT on the 135i stealing some thunder, I can hear 1M prices dropping even though it will still be a much better car overall.
I think it will be the N55 PPK with both MT and DCT available.
Dont think of this as an M car. It is not.
