Eye Opener. The 135ti will be $57,000

Well, no one has said it yet so I will. With the 135i maxing at $52,000 loaded, Jeez, the 135ti is going to upwards of $60,000?! Granted the ti will have a lot of standard features I'm sure, but.... wow... used Porsche's and even a brand new Caymen start looking reeeeaaaalllllyyy good.

I believe the tii is supposed to be a 4 cylinder, according to press reports. You're making up a price on a non-existent car.

By the way, 135i does not max out at $52k. If you add up everything on the option list, you're paying for stand-alone items that are included in packages you've already paid for. Enough with the drama posts, please.

I think it has been stated that if you use packages and not just option pricing, then it maxs out around 47k ..

thanks,

And....the 135ti is what the automotive industry calls a "design study", its a one of a kind vehicle built to generate buzz at an auto show. Its never going to make production, and there is no point in ever mentioning the 135ti again.

Yep, max-out is 47k.

You could say that about the 3 series coupe too.

A max-out optioned 335i coupe is 54k.

Even worse a max-out optioned 335i convert. is 59k, hell you might as well pick-up the new M3.

That's cheap guys. I'm going to have to pay upwards of US$64,000 for a 135i here in Australia to get one on the road.... and that's without any options!

Sorry, wish that was true. 135 loaded is 48,645 add standard sales tax at 7.5% (8.75 where I live) and you got $52,293

Since when does BMW list the California State tax when pricing cars?

Might want to add your insurance in while you're there, and the wax you're buying. Oh! Excise tax too, and ... Well, you get the picture.

I believe the Tii (if it comes to the US) will be priced lower than the 135i

My only point "Larry" is that the 135i is dam close to 50K, and it is not unlikely that someone could drive off the lot after paying $55K+. I tend to think in the real world, too bad I don't live in a special tax free zone like you.

In the real world, 95% of the 135i won't have every single option. And no people will not be leaving the dealer paying $55k.

With your tax rate added to a loaded 335i coupe, you could leave paying well over $60k, and leave paying almost $70k for a 335i convert.

But a very very small percentage gets every single option and package.

I am willing to bet most people picking up a 135i will leave the dealership paying under $40,000 without taxes.

Point well taken 'slickone' and I believe you're right about most buyers. I understand that I am in the minority, but I was discussing maxing out. For 5K more I could have a loaded 335i and it has got me to think. As pricing goes I think the 135 is a specialty model in BMW's view as it is very much in the 3 series territory, but it's the 'specialty' factor I love. I do think though I will be seeing a lot of loaded 1ers in my area (SF Bay) and my dealer agrees (all the mid life crisis sufferers like myself).

When you say things like that, it makes you sound like you're either (a) 15 years old or (b) a troll. Or both.
