I'm Matt. 2008 SGM 135i convertible. Car is still a work in progress from a mod standpoint. I am focused more on performance mods as I autocross a couple of times a month and also do some track days.

For a meet, I am at the BMW CCA autocross every month. Best place to see what your car can do at the limit. What is the point of performance mods if you cannot test them out?

Pic is from the Reno Balloon races last year.

i haven't seen your car either. I rarely see any modded BMW's in the city. I have seen a few 335i's.

Any people with any other bmw's are welcome to post in here as well.

How funny it is that I just said I never spot you in town at all. And I just saw your car parked on the Townsend across from Starbucks. Really nice car man!!

Also Spot another Black 135i right in front of City Hall 5 mins before spotted ilikebmxbikes. Car has performance wheel, and exhaust doesn't sound like stock one with Weatherford BMW license plate. Nice car too, and you are slammed... wondering how do you survive in the city.

I'm from San Jose. Had my 135i 'vert since March 2009. It's BSM with tera leather and a moonlight top. Pretty much stock, although I recently dumped the run-flats for Michelin PSS's. I'm thinking about taking BMW up on the performance power kit special in the coming weeks.

I haven't seen a lot of 1'ers on the road until the last 6 months or so. Last weekend I saw three other 135i's in downtown Saratoga.

Matt - I think we met last year at a couple of LPR PCA autocrosses in Marina.

I live in Daly City but go to school Mon-Fri in Downtown San Francisco.

I USED to drive a Alpine White 135i.
One way of knowing who I was, is that I used to sport an HKS BOV.

I'm waiting on my Valencia Orange 1M to arrive for PCD.
I'll post photos in early November.
