It has been a good car--some problems, but nothing too crazy. That being said, as someone who has bought BMWs for my last three cars, I will truly be looking elsewhere once my lease is up. I used to think the 135 gave you a great bang for the buck, but now I am thinking that there might be better options out there....we will see....
As someone who just shopped what's out there, I picked the 135i.
There really isn't much out there with this kind of performance and the BMW feel for driving.
I didn't drive the new Mustang GT as it wasn't out, and I have no desire for the overly wrought and claustrophobic Camaro.
The Z is nice, but you better be dedicated to owning a niche vehicle with niche purpose. It's not really a daily driver or a tourer.
