It is dual though. The two pipes are just run on one side.

You might own a 1-series if you prefer a REAL convertible with soft-top and a 6-series is waaaaay too big, heavy, and expensive...

You might be a 1 series owner if you see a sharp turn coming up and you warn your passenger to grab the "Oh Shit" handle.

"You might own a 1-series if"........ you post in this thread? Kidding..

I own a 1-series because.. I've searched and found the one car that can make me whole... the one that makes me smile.. the one that clears my head at the end of a bad day... the reason I look back just to take another look... the reason I look into the garage to say goodnight.

An emotional connection that many here can understand.

Its a BMW
Its small and oh so much fun to drive
It looks great
Its the color both my wife and I love
Bought used & at half the price my wife had priced out a new one (128/135)
Sport pkg and 6 speed manual
Always look back at it & think its so beautiful
So far its never seen winter snow/salt.
Maybe my very last car.

  • You might own a 1 series if you are rebuilding the entire suspension, sub frame and control arms.
  • You might own a 1 series if you take pride in the last NA inline 6 engine.
  • You might own a 1 series if you use RealOEM with frighting efficiency and can recognize part numbers people post
  • You might own a 1 series if you know what TRW is.
  • You might own a 1 series if you stare at your cars rear 3/4 view more than the front.
  • You might own a 1 series if you are sad that your dont have the same rear roof line as e46 coupe.
  • You might own a 1 series if you see the outline airbag on the passenger side bulging out.
  • You might own a 1 series if you have PM box is full email form bimmerpost and you cant delete messages because alot of them have great reference material

Lol. That's just a 3-series owner with 1er envy talking.

You might be a 1er owner if:
-you considered a 3 series but didn't want the same car everyone else has.
-you considered a 3 series until you realized just how bloated and overweight they have become
-you considered a 3 series but realized you could have a 1 series that is faster, more nimble, more everything a driver likes about classic BMW, and (possibly) save a few bucks in the process (though both of my 1ers cost more than a lot if 3rs, so cost savings is questionable).
;-)
