Hello, just bought a '08 135i vert :)

Hi,

New '08 135 owner and first time BMW owner. Coming from a long line of Audi's and VW's. Spent the first week cleaning the seats, filling in paint chips, and polishing/waxing the car. Looked like the car had hardly been taking care of in the past few years. But now it looks as new as it can look for an '08. Working on some DIY projects and will post as I get them done. Thanks for all the great info so far.

Review of the car so far: FUN!

Review of the dealership: WTF!

Looks really nice! Check out the performance grill available. It is all black and looks really nice on black cars.

Funny thing was that it only cost us about $4k to upgrade from the civic on the right of the picture. I got a crazy deal on the car and it still has 10 months of CPO on it. A very nice upgrade in my opinion

Very nice car. I would highly recommend one of the extended warranties. (some people would disagree)
I think they run like $2-3000 depending on the level and are for about 3 years. Money well spent in my opinion.
Great car....have fun.

Yes, maintain the waranty and check the C pillar area of the hood for the wear spot.
