By far the 135i, it's worth the extra $$, That little rocket can be turned into a monster.

135i is a wet dream. TT power in a relatively light rwd car. And it's a BMW.

The turbo BMWs are already known for cooking their oil and going into safe mode to cool down. That's why I would not want to have one past the warranty period.

I would get an 135i, and that Vishnu mod box to tune the engine to 400ft/lbs torque by my uncle George.

Banking on a turbocharged car for the long run is a big mistake. Just one more reason why I'd never BUY a turbocharged car - leasing for the length of the warranty or shorter is the only way to go.
