2009 BMW 135i 6MT Alpine White/Coral Red

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
Sold

Item Interest
This car was originally bought from 1addicts way back in 2014.
Here is the original ad:
https://www.1addicts.com/forums/show...009+135i+coral

The original owner was a great guy and took amazing care of the car. He specc’d the car tastefully with emphasis on weight saving (manual non-heated seats, no BMW iDrive).

I have also tried to take good care of the care during my ownership as well. Currently has 101.5k miles. Car drives smooth. Has never been in an accident. Although the car may seem like it has alot of performance parts, most of it was done to unrestrict the engine and help it breathe and flow better. Reason for selling is I recently purchased a M2C.

Because this car has been my daily driver for the past 6 years, I have tried to stay ahead with preventative maintenance and fluid changes. I am also a self-admitted granny driver. Car has never been launched, raced, or tracked, just the occasional highway on-ramp pull. Car rarely ever sees higher than 5500rpm- one of the few times was for the data logging for the tune. Oil changed every 3k-3.5k miles. I religiously use Shell V-Power 93 octane gas (will go out of my way to make sure its Shell). Also, I always let the car idle for at least 1-2 minutes prior to driving.

Exterior overall is in good/great shape considering it's a 2009. Does have some rock chips on the hood and a couple other places in the car. Overall, the paint is in great condition for its age. Gets washed often and Klasse High-Gloss Sealant is applied twice per year. The front bumper has various rock chips on it from throughout the years. Overall in good condition considering age.

Interior is in great condition. Windshield sunshade used daily. Slight wear and fade on the driver side seat bolster but that is pretty much the only cosmetic issue with the interior. Previous owner had the OEM European Dashboard with extra Storage Compartment. Leather parts are protected with Chemical Guys Leather Conditioner with (UV protection) 4-5 times per year. Other interior parts are protected with 303 Aerospace Protectant 3-4 times per year.

The side mirrors have some orange areas- seems to be a common issue (https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=983072)
AC works well but does need a charge at the beginning of the summer.


With the recent maintenance, car is good to go! I am hopeful the car go to an owner that will care for it well. Asking $15,500. Car is located in Mass, 15 minutes west of Boston.

Can be reached through PM.
Thanks!

I honestly haven't taken many photos of the car. Its slightly saying "hi" in one of the 135i photos.
But this is the link for the car I ended up purchasing from a member here as well.

That Hockenheim Silver is just beautiful in person. But I am a bit sad to be moving from the 135i. It has treated me well.

Thank you, I appreciate it. As weird as it sounds theres some things I like about the driving experience of this car over the M2C, I may be biased though after driving this car for so long. Either way, this car will be missed!

Thank you for the kind words. I agree, it's a great color combo, alot brighter inside and more "cheery" of a place to be in than the dark interior of the M2C.
