I’m still waiting to be spotted, but I’m usually a bit further south, near Lomita Blvd. Been DD my 128i from Cerritos to Torrance since May…

Question: I have a 128i convertible and have had people stop and ask me about the car. I was wondering if it's unique or special? I didn't realize there was a spotting thread dedicated to it as well!

Not a whole lot of 1-Series out there, that's all. It's virtually impossible to not see a 3-Series, but 1ers are rather rare.

Seriously.

Saw a gray 135, bunch of convertible 1ers, and a modified VO 1M at this past weekend's Santa Clara cars and coffee 👍🏻
