[631twentyeighteye]

18 here, 19 in a few months. only a 128i, but i couldnt risk going 135i when i need the car to last at least 100k miles. still makes me smile every time i drive it.

Because you'd likely crash it or you don't think "mechanically" a 135 will last 100k?

Mechanically mostly. I don't doubt that they CAN last 100k or more, i just know for a fact that the n52 will last 100k+. Plus if i had a 135i i'd tune it and have everything in the world done to it only lowering the reliability overall. I couldn't risk turbo's going out at 100k and replacing them, i drive 50 miles a day minimum so the miles add up fast. put 7k on my 128 in just about four months.

Plus the added cost of the 135 made it a worse choice overall. Broke college kid problems.

I'm 19 and I have 09 135i FBO.
I've had an R33 Nissan Skyline and a Fully Built Subaru WRX Sti.

I'm also located in Florida.

I would start out with JB4 and DCI

I am 16 and I have had two 135i's. the first one I got 3 months ago I drove it during the hurricane and hit a tree. 3 days ago I picked up my 2013 135i m-pack premium pack and tech pack. So I'm a young 1er

what were you doing driving during a hurricane?

I'm 22 and this is my first 135i. Previous car when I was 19 in signature. Oh how we grow up so fast...

Start with the JB4 tune. Best thing to buy hp to money wise.
