25 (26 in a week). This is gonna be my second BMW, currently own an E46 which i've owned for nearly 6 years. Been looking for a new car for the past two years but nothing jumped out untill i found spy shots of the 1er. Love my E46 and I think the 1er will be a great replacement, a pumped up E46 with new fresh lines, just what the E92 should have been!

This is another thread that's not in proper alignment with the forums, but I'm going to leave it here since it seems to be attracting a fair amount of attention.

im 18, ordering 135i in april after i'm moved into the city (i'm in malibu right now) moving into santa monica.

41 here. My 135 is currently at the shipping yard waiting for its jump across the pond. I've had a chance to drive quite a few different cars in the past ten years (worked with an auto enthusiast magazine group here in SoCal). I have really enjoyed my A3 DSG for the past couple years and I'm looking forward to going back to a manual transmission, traffic be damned! :wink:

[Atorak]

27 here, the 135i will be the third BMW I'll have the pleasure of owning. Two 528s before this, which were fantastic cars. But they were automatics, so I'll be taking off my training wheels with the manual 1er!

I was born in 1955. I have learned patience. ED at end of June. I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.:iono:

[Jockey]

About to turn 28. I'm pretty sure I know what my birthday present to myself is going to be...

[40yroldawakening]

Just turned 40 a few months ago, The wife has a 335i, and I don't get to drive it much, so, this will be my toy if all goes right. If not I might kick her out of the 335i, and get her a X3.

[320Devil]

Just turned 30. Only reason why I ordered a 135 is because it will make me a Young Urban Professional.

Wow...I am so jealous of your life! I'm wanting to go to USC and live in the burbs of LA later in life

yea, and i feel espicially bad because everytime something little happens to my E46 it ends up being at least 2k worth or work done to it, and everytime my mom picks up the tab i feel awful, but since i'll be leasing the 1'er it will always be under warrenty

So i got what i liked at the price i wanted. No millionair, but i make about 50k a year..... and this is certainly a step up from my 08 accord demo

I think you made a great decision. You're already doing well for your age and you are exactly what BMW was thinking of when they brought this car to the US. Enjoy it. You won't ever want to buy another brand after this one. I'm exactly twice your age so I'm getting the 135. Look for me on route 78. I'll be the middle aged dude in the Metallic Black 135.
