Re-hi!

Getting back into a 135i after selling my 135is 2 years ago. Big mistake letting that go.

Just wanted to poke my head back in and say hi.

I am looking at a 2012 and have my JB4 from my other car. I'm told that will work but the Cobb V3 will not for 2012 up. Any other opinions to add a little spice to the car?

TIA,

Jim

Welcome! JB4's have specific harnesses so just make sure you've got the right one before you start working on it, easy to tell by looking at the MAF cable connector.

Other than that it's all preference. There's a nice spread of mods and options for these cars depending what kind of ride you're looking for.

Post some pics when you can!

Thanks Matticus, I did email Burger and they confirmed it's fine.

I'll be sure to post pics!

Heh, just wanted to stick with my e36M. The 135is was awesome, but the buyout on the lease was not worth it.

Thanks!

hehehe.

I LOVED it, but the pricepoint on the used ones is just too high IMO. It does have the 320HP, but I still have my JB4.

Cheers,

But we miss you. You ever find out what happened to your old car? You could always save CosmosPower's 12k mile 135is for $31k I think it's at now, though that's probably about what your residual was a year ago, huh?

I don't know if I'm still cool enough to be in the IS crowd.

Yeah, that's exactly what the residual was. I think my car is in Texas.

I imagine we all had about the same $30-32k residual based on options. I'm also with you though, seemed too pricey to pay at the time and was too rich for my blood, though prices don't seem to have gone down hardly at all since then in the last year.

At least slap some 313s on whatever you get in the spirit of it. I swear, I think half the reason I even got the car was cause of those damn wheels.

Not sure why, I mean they're nice but are they THAT nice to stay over 30k? (shrug)

Those 313's are nice, but wooo a bit pricey.

I have some Dforce 8.5" with 245/40-17 Bridgestone RE-71R on them. Hoping that will fit. I know a 235 will as I've seen it on a car with no scrape.
