my 135i review courtesy of southbay

spec 123 · 07-22-2009, 02:38 AM

So, my oil light kept going on saying im below min. +1 qt is what it says. It is the 2nd time in two weeks that I had it at Southbay. FIrst week i got a 328i 4 dr. Nice car but slowwwww. Then 2nd time. i was blessed with a 135i convertible fully loaded heated seats. BIG ASS brakes and the sound was just amazing. Sounds way better with a little grunt n growl. It was an auto with paddle shifters which I wasn't used to sine i have a 6mt so I was playing with it for a bit and the sound is just awesome through tunnels with the top down. The power is noticeable and as far as handles im lowered so its a lil different but I feel way more confident with this car. If anyone wants to drive this car, get ur service at SOUTHBAY I had it for 4 days racked up 40 miles~~!! and I dont wanna give it back

Wow lucky guy!
SouthBay is a beautiful dealership. I returned a lease there a couple years ago, really nice people there.
Too far for me to go just for service but i think there is a tech here on the forums that works there. SoCalTech i think. . .
That is a lonely car and 4 days?!? I can't believe you only put 40 miles on it in 4 days! I put more than 40 just driving to work.

I probably put like 40 a day regular commute. Sounds like a fun car though. I need to get service done soon also.

What do you think they would do if the car back with more than 1000 miles on it?? Do they have any milage limitation on loaners?

cagekicker · 07-23-2009, 03:48 PM

Haha... I've put over 1000 miles on a loaner, but they held onto my 1er for 10 days so I don't feel guilty.
