A daily driver is typically synonymous to reliability, comfort and fuel efficiency. While neither car hits the mark on the latter (even though either car's fuel consumption isn't that bad), only one has both first aforementioned qualities: the 135i. I've seen BMW blocks go for 500,000 miles with ease… now that isn't to say that there were no electrical problems along the way but most are an easy fix. On a Porsche, as you said, everything is difficultly accessed. If you think BMW parts are expensive, wait until you see Porsche parts.
As far as comfort goes there truly is no contest here. The 135i is extremely comfortable for its size and the sportiness it conveys through its engine and body lines. The same cannot exactly be said for the Porsche. I couldn't imagine anyone daily driving anything other than a Boxster and imho that's not a real Porsche.
It sounds like you want the 911 but if you're thinking with your wallet you'll go for the 135i.
