2013 BMW 135is  [0.00]
Saw what was probably the same blue 135is at Alice's last weekend. This guy probably lives in Los Gatos since that's where I saw it last. Doubt it's a different 135is.

Guy didn't even notice my car.

Some people...

If I could remember how to post pics I would post more. But it does have the performance exhaust (with the golf T Mod.) 😎 and the blue and red bars and M on the door sills and wheels. Twin turbo 😎

Mate, I hate to break it to you, but yours is a regular 135i. Not a 135is. And def not a twin turbo.

Yes, but not a 135is. A regular 135i with TwinPower Turbo N55, which means it's a twin-scroll single turbo. N54 was a biturbo.

There is confusion in the BMW database. If you search the VIN of almost any 135i (at least of certain years) it will come out as being a "135i/135is"

The 135is was a limited edition of well less than 1000 cars sold only in the USA, only in model year 2013, although there are some similarities with some 135i M-Sport cars sold in Canada that have part but not all of the package.

If my memory serves correctly, there were less than 250 135is convertibles made in total, of which less than 45 were 6MT.

If you look through this thread, you can find a database or spreadsheet with all of the VIN#s of the 135is cars that were built.

"Twin Power Turbo," on the engine cover means twin scroll. N55 is a twin scroll SINGLE turbo, not twin turbo. Made from MY 2011 - 2013. N54 is the twin turbo engine. Made from MY 2008 - 2010. These years are for the 135i.

Here is the list of US convertible 135is and Canadian convertible M Sport Edition cars.

As said above, it's not a 135is, which is why it's not on the list.

No "is" badge then it's probably not a 135is. I don't know why anyone would take the "s" off. :P

A 135is has the PPK tune, performance exhaust and 313 style wheels. You car does not appear to have any of these.. It looks like a regular 2011-2013 135i M Sport. Nothing to sneeze at, but it's not an "is".

Correct, either you'd debadge or leave it on. Not just take the "s" off.
