New 135i M-Sport Owner

BMWNC · 10-23-2016, 12:09 PM

I traded my JCW MINI in last month for a BMW 135i M-Sport. I can say I enjoy driving the 135i the most of all my BMWs I have owned. I have added a tune, BMW performance exhaust and a charge pipe to the 135i so far. I think it needs a set of VMR 710s to complete the look. Just like my MINI there is always something it needs.

Welcome and congrats on the car. PPK and the PE are an awesome combo and sound great together! Love the Coral Red interior as well. Had it in my 1st 1er. Beautiful!

Thanks for the welcome
My son who sells BMWs just traded his 2015 435i in for a 2013 135is. The dealership he works at just started selling Dinan again. He just did the tune and added a ER charge pipe since his stock one blew. He loves his 1 with the tune.

Did he blow the charge pipe before or after the tune was installed? And do you mean Dinan stage 2? Been thinking of getting a new charge pipe myself.

Very nice, congrats.

Yes his tune is the Dinan Stage 2. His charge pipe blew about 2 weeks after he got his tune. It was replaced under warrenty with a stock one. This past week we both had ER charge pipes installed.

Welcome and great looking car! Vmr 710s are always solid on these cars. I think it's cool that your son and yourself have the same car. Then again I think everyone should have a 1er lol

Thanks. I started my son out right at age 16 with an E39 with a manual transmission. He is 24 and has also had a 2008 335i and a 2015 435i and now his 2013 135is his favorite.

I like his taste. The 1 series just has the right feel to it that the newer BMW's are missing.

Congrats!!

We are matching!!! white on red I love it.

I need to catch up and get my exhaust.

ccdre · 10-27-2016, 10:35 PM

Nice ride! And the fastest color by far!

BMWNC · 10-29-2016, 11:56 AM

Great looking car, really like that color combo. I hope to find a 3 pedal E88 in that combo late next year when the Z4 lease is up....needle in a haystack
