What a great afternoon!!
Seriously, I know if I had driven the 135, I would have definitely went that route, but, I wouldn't allow myself to test drive it. I was trying to make a conscience effort to keep my gas mileage close to what I had on my Cooper S, as well as keep my payments in the same dollar range. Not to mention that the z4 coupe is really my dream car - and if I looked at the 135, I might as well have spent a little bit more and gone with the z4. Okay, that said. The 128i is SUPER!! I think the car has enough power for me, it sounds awesome, drives beautifully, takes corners well. It's everything I hoped for. I especially love not having to brace myself when approaching potholes and small bumps in the road, unlike the MINI. I was a little worried that I had made the wrong decision, based on the few 128 people I see posting, but I now know I went the right way!! WOOT! And can I just say that I LOVE my interior, it's muy beautiful!! Definitely not my best shot, but I only stopped long enough to take this for you all... better pictures to come. |

Bet you don't sleep much tonight! Hope pick-up goes well (always take a shot at hitting the dealer up for ball caps and other BMW swag). Let us know how your first day goes - and post some photos, too!

Well, the sun finally started to come out this afternoon, so I washed my 1er and snapped some great digital pics....but due to technology sucking, my stupid xd card reader won't read my 1GB card with the pics on it....so BACK to the drawing board as it is now dark. Pics by this weekend or bust! LOL!

If you don't mind my asking, who's your dealer? Classic in Plano...? If you already posted this elsewhere, mea cupla.

Great pictures of a cool looking car. White never looked so good. But... about your reflection in the mirror...
:wink: Why on Earth aren't you grinning ear-to-ear!? You ought to be smirking like a cat with a mouth full of yellowjackets!

Any twisties in the DFW area? I've found the roads very high quality compared to MI for sure and really look forward to being able to enjoy this machine year-round not having to worry about snow!
