I've owned 3. A 128i Sport then a 135i M sport then a 128i sport. All manuals.
I sold the 135i to look for the 128i.
I thought I'd like the extra power.
Not so much. You can only go so fast on the street and the 135i was not nearly as involving, balanced or reliable as the 128. I think the 128 sounds better too.
Something about driving a slow car fast instead of a fast car slow...
