To the OP
I recently purchased a 135i with some mods as i was looking for more power because i was constantly driving my GTI VR6 at its street limits for years. I have owned and driven many cars, MKi/2/3/4 gtis, porsche 914/944/996 4 and 4s bmw e30/e90 and now this e82.
Let me say this is the toughest car to drive on the daily. I drive it very rarely more then 50% throttle on my 10 mile commute to work. When i first got it it would step out everywhere when getting on it. So i have upgraded suspension to bilstein b12 package and whiteline RSFB inserts and indy500 rear tires. Let me say this transformed the ability of this car and confidence in cornering. Where the car shines is at the track which i just recently did my first track day in it and it is an amazing car on the track.
So yes it can be a could car for what your looking for but you will not be driving it at 10/10ths on the street but it will be fun.
