Thank you, 135i brakes

Awesome brakes and a little defensive driving saved my ass yesterday, total asshole freak cut RIGHT ACROSS me from center lane, across right lane on a Baltimore city street, to make a right-hand turn, wrong way down a one-way street possibly. Almost destroyed my car, but man, those factory 135i brakes saved my ASS, I came to a stop right away (I was going pretty slowly, but still, I was INCHES from this asshole.)

Thank you, 135i. The dead HPFP at 7300 miles, meh, it's nothing baby. I know you were just keeping me in check, making sure I still love you just as much now as ever. Couldn't be more true, darling.

Glad to hear you are OK and that is the reason why you bought a BMW.

I posted something similar about the brakes a few weeks back. They saved me from a guy who ran a red light and would have t-boned me.

Glad to hear you're okay. That guy sounds like a lunatic. These 135i breaks are awesome!
