I was in the same position you were in when I bought mine. Seems like you got a good deal, they can be had if you are patient. I got my black on black fully loaded minus nav sport package steptronic with paddles for 20 out the door at a dealer.

I love the alpine white, I wish mine were white.

Thanks man and yea now im just contemplating on modding it or not. I dont want to void my warranty, but damn i really want a jb4, and some vsrf dps, oh and of course cx racing intercooler. Those would be my first three mods, i already have the money for it thats the shitty part

Yea man i know i got a good deal, pics dont do justice ive never seen a car this immaculate in my life. But wow thats a good deal to man, how do you like the car overall??? Yes i love opening my garage door at random times in the day to see it tucked in their look beautiful

i look for reasons to drive, and man have i had fast cars from 500hp srt4s to 450rwhp 04 cobras idk something about this car just drives me insane maybe its just the refinement and comfort that those previous cars never had.

I love my 135i. I'm coming from an 89 mustang and I can say that this car is way more than I hoped for. So much fun to drive and comfortable on long trips (I drive approx. 400 miles every other weekend) and no problems so far with it.

From what I've read and researched, you can get the jb4 and still keep the warranty. Just whenever you take it in for maintenance, set it to the stock tune someone else with a jb4 could give more insight on this though. Also, from reading a few threads on here, really the only thing out of those mods you'd have to worry about is the downpipes

So i can get jb4 and intercooler without voiding the warranty? How about muffler delete?

Those I'm not sure about. I would ask around on here, or go talk with your local BMW dealer. I don't know how strict your dealer would be on it, but you could say that the intercooler is to help with cooling and protecting the engine vs adding performance which it does both.

yea i used the search button its pretty much a hit or miss with some mods i guess, lol i know im going to end up modding it.Ill probably just wait like 5k miles and make sure the car is running real good before i do anything

If installed right, the storage bin will look factory and also be useful. I wasn't a fan of how the owner installed the aftermarket nav unit in the bin though. As for the lack of storage, I added the little cargo net to the passenger side transmission tunnel that was available in the older Z cars.

I agree completely.

Congrats on the car and have fun with it. Though, I'm still curious why you would want to buy it outright in cash when low interest loans are still available. That would let you keep some cash on hand and also build a good credit history which is key to anyone's financial future.

Especially at the age of 20, just saying. But not wanting to make payments is understandable.

Not BMW mods. Thats why many here that are still under warranty have gotten the PPK ... performance exhaust... performance suspension.. etc.
Just depends how much you want to spend. or if your happy as is.
