Just ordered...!

Well after three Cooper S's (02,05,07) I have decided to give the new 135i a try. (Loved all three by the way.)

Very impressed with the 135i. Test drive was phenomonal with dsc/dtc deactivted. I think it is a diamond in the rough as far as price/performance, etc.!

I have noticed many other previous MINI owners involved with the 135i on this site which is great. Looked closely at Lotus but I've got to have room for the kids....


With some real rubber on the front and rear and mabye some minor suspension work this car will be a real autocross/track contender. The shear engine power is just plain fun.


Very excited!!:thumbup:

I like them fast and light...Crimson red I hear gives 2/10ths on the autocross course:wink:... so what is in the sig is all she has!

I did spring for the comfort access because it is a great feature that compliments the start/stop button and is just plain cool.

Welcome to the club. Nice choices on your car, CR looks awesome, IMO Sport is de rigeur, CA is kool as well. BTW, the RF transmission distance for CA is quite moderate, somewhere around 5 or 6 feet.
