If i could have afforded a 135i, i realistically would have gone for it. but at 18 starting college and having to commute 40~ or so miles 5 days a week plus work on the weekends, a NA motor will be much more forgiving while still a lot of fun. I don't have to worry about turbo's, waste gate rattles, carbon build up or a lot of things with the NA motor. Plus i'm getting about 24 mpg no matter how i drive, flooring it down back roads or driving 80 on the highway. I like to make myself feel better by slowly setting it up for autocross where the lack of torque and overall power won't be AS big a deal as on a track.
