So, out of curiosity, why did you decide on the 1? Everyone's getting 1-series fever lately. It's amazing how relatively unloved they were when new.

I had a 2012 135is DCT cabrio for 6yrs, replaced it with Tesla Model S
I currently own 2013 128i Manual cabrio;
Would love to replace 128i with 135, love the fun factor & liveliness.

I have a 2008 135 M-sport. 178K miles. New coils, injectors and plugs. Was not really looking to sell but will for the right price, because I am in 2 minds of switching to a Porsche SUV.

Yes, that is true. I'm in a 1 for two years now. First, an automatic cabrio (I was doing a lot of L.A. commuting at the time and it made more sense) and now a manual 128 M-sport. Yes, I am in love with it, so much like a 2002 or E30.

Yes, they were unloved at the start. So was the Z4 M Roadster, and I had one of those, too.

What I like about the E8X is the size and fun factor. Not as big as a larger 3 or 5, not as small as a Mini. 6 cylinders, good, balanced base performance and the ability to scale up relatively easily if one wants. Keep the 2 series, as others have said, it's the 1's fat sister.

Have to admit I was not impressed by the 1M. Yes, it is a solid uber-performer, and as time has shown, the values skyrocketed. Most of the previous M cars followed a specific development path, very unique from the pedestrian models, and this one borrowed a LOT from the 135. One can still buy 3 good S54-engined cars for the price of a 1M.

Okay, flame suit on.

Burn, baby, Burn!!! Wait till the 1m'ers, 2'er or S54'er see this! I'm with you though. Guess this is why this forum is called 1Addicts. To tell the truth, when I first bought the car I kind liked it. But as I gained more seat time and began to learn more of what the car can do (much of it explained with this group), then I quickly fell in love.
