If I wanted to complete my collection then I'd get a lower mileage 128i with a sports package. I am out of garage space at this point, however, although if one dropped in my lap I might have to reconsider. |

Do it!!. Get the 128i. My plan for a few years from now is to pick one up that was driven by someone, errr female and young (is this too stereotypical for here) not an enthusiast in most likely white (most common color for 128 I have seen in my area). Then turn it into a dedicated track car.

I took the 135is Vert in to the dealer today to have an oil change, general lookover, and tire change (to Michelin AS/3 non-RFT). They told me that although there are 3 1Ms they service (one of them being my VO), they have never had a 135is in the dealership. After looking over the car, the tech (whom I know well) told me it is basically a brand new car with nothing wrong with it. He was glad that I did the oil change even though Carmax did one 2 months ago, because the aftermarket filter they used was garbage and beginning to deteriorate. It was really cold and windy today, and I am very surprised to see how well insulated these convertibles are.

Pretty cool to have some more enthusiasts here showing up now that people are starting to sell the car as we approach the 3-year date.

In speaking with the tech who worked on my 135is vert today, he said that in 2017 all of the BMWs will be sold in hybrid form, which he said means they all will be 8 speed automatics and the systems will be incompatible with a MT. He wasn't sure if this also applied to the M-models, but definitely it would be true for the regular series cars. This means no more manual transmission vehicles, except (maybe) for a few M's. Bye Bye BMW. |

Again, no specifics, and given the lack of time I never pressed him on it, to be more specific. I've personally test driven a 128i with the sport package in San Diego recently and I liked the car, from the driver's perspective. I think it is really unlikely that I will buy another 1-Series car, given what I already have. If I dispose of my STi, then I might possibly buy another BMW, but it would have to be more practical than just another 2 door coupe. |

Although I haven't started modding yet (aside from a pair of BMWP plate frames), I know I won't be able to stop once I do start modding. I know one thing for sure, I won't be touching this car's power/torque. I'm interested in tinting too! Do you have any suggestions as to what's legal/illegal in CA? I've been scared to do it because I didn't know the details for it. |

whats best price on the CF spoiler? i havent seen one under $400 thats the only reason i was considering an after market replica. also im wondering if my car will come with the ppk stickers or not. i would like to get those as well. As far as tint goes in California any tint on anything other than the back 3 windows is illegal, currently my Audi TT has 35% tint all the way around which is fairly light even on a black car with black interior. so far i haven't gotten a ticket for it even after bring pulled over for speeding multiple times |

My car did not come with the ppk stickers. I'd like to get some though. I just did some searching and found that the legal limit for front side windows is 70% and you can go as dark as possible with the rear and rear side windows. Would 70% be anywhere near functional? I only want to reduce the amount of heat. I'll most likely take the risk and go for a 50% or even 35% if they're not that obvious. |
