I have finally joined the 1 series brotherhood

128GP · 07-09-2013, 07:06 PM

Picked up last week after an extensive multi month long search

CPO 2011 128i M-Sport
18k miles
6 sp
Xenons
Value Package (Leather/Ipod/USB)

I drove 3 hours to Connecticut to pick it up last Friday. It's a pretty basic stripper but i do miss the bluetooth and may do the retro fit.

I had tried finding a CPO 2011+ 135i, and tried purchasing one in particular locally, but the numbers just werent working out (I didnt want to pay that much

So yeah, coming from anemic Hondas/Acuras (last two being TSX's) the RWD and 230hp is plenty for my 4 mile commute. Planning on a BMW PE, maybe the strut bar, a bluetooth retrofit, and next spring a set of rims/tires.

Ive had the car 4 days, and smile whenever I get in. Glad to be part of the family/forum. Looking forward to all the info the forum can provide
