I'm in Cape Town. I'm part of the BMW Club in Cape Town, called Exclusively ///M. Its all the M cars. So you welcome to join.

This is my 2nd 130i Sport, alpine white. I prefer this facelift 3 door to the old 5 door. I've added the carbon fibre diffuser and splitters, rockford 12", sprayed my 18" rims the dark grey (like on the new V8 M3). Doing her up slowly.

Hi Guys,

I'm new. Ran into Dewald yesterday at a car wash and obviously we started talking BMW's. He pointed me to this site that I did not even know about. Got my 135 in March, got almost 6000 on the clock by now. Really love it, not that I don't love the others too, all in a different way.

I live in Pretoria, on the East side. Hoping to be able to get to the Sunday breakfast run. Look forward to participating in the forum.

Hey C Africa

Welcome to the form.
I must say you have a very nice collection of BMW's, How would you compare the performance of your 135 to that M Coupe?

I have often considered the question, how do I compare the performance between the M and the 135. I haven't been able to properly compare them over a set course to give a definitive opinion but I would say there is going to be very little difference in straight line performance (here at reef altitudes). There is a major diference in the "feel" though. The M is a sportscar, the 135 is a very fast car. That is the best way I can come up with in describing the difference. This has to do with the seating position, ride, feel, sound-track etc. the whole experience.
