Exocet. I’m a 128i fanboy through and through, but I think there is nothing better to go out and have fun with than a Miata that’s even cheaper to run, and has no weight. I talked with a guy who has one, and he’s been on the same set of 200TW tires for four years, and the same brake pads since it was a Miata.
The 128i is entirely a slave to it’s excessive weight. As stupidly light as the engine itself is, the body is made of thick German steel, the interior is stuffed with noise insulation, and the suspension is crammed full of cheap rubber bushings and crappy stamped steel arms in the rear. It eats through brake pads and tires like it’s at a buffet, and isn’t too great on fuel either. An Exocet does none of that.
