Ug - the more photos I see of this car, the less I like it. Starting to lean toward Porsche these days...

Sure about that width?

B/c that's wider than an E46 M3 or a '08 Viper.

The first picture has a "210 West" sign in it. Looks like the hilly stretch between Pasadena and the San Fernando Valley.

It is in Tujunga-Sunland area, just past La Tuna Canyon exit on 210 west.

Yep, sure about that. Got it from BMW's own brochure.

I believe this is the same car that was at the Veichle Distribution Center in Port Hueneme (Oxnard, California) on Saturday November 3rd when the Southern Calif BMW Club got a tour of the center. They also had a 128 Convertible. We could not sit in the cars, only press our noses to the windows. Still a great opportunity to see the car in person and compare it to the 335 (as the 335 coupes were being prepared to be delivered to dealers.)

Nice pics but it seems the wheels really make a difference with the 1 coupe. I think this 128i would look fine and sporty with 18-inch alloys, like on the 135i we've seen so far, but looks so boring with the smaller shoes it's wearing in these photos!

old135 · 11-07-2007, 10:30 PM

some pictures from the tour

No they are not....
The washers only work if the headlights are on.
