Wheres the purple one going

i have a garage being built which im either going to store it in if i dont decide to sell it - if i store it ill be buying parts slowly and building it up.. im even still waiting for parts now - but im looking to buy a brand new car this time.

Mate just bought a 135i, seems like a lot of car for the money. Handles and goes almost as well as my Skyline, but without the creaks and bumps and spine breaking

On the list for potential new cars

Have they begun making them for men?

[bluejeans]

ahah yeah ive heard good things about them to be honest..

thought been looking more at evo x / wrx / golf r

was considering hsv r8 but they only rear wheel drive and no turbo ... and with all those extra kw's they still slower than an evo from 0-100

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

100% Original minus the aftermarket headunit and catback, guess the price...

Edit: Guess thats not that clear rly, it's running with original engine, just no reg.

Welldone!

How's it run?

[kaitoukid]

1M if you want a 1 series? Although won't be new I guess .

Okay off to first class of the year ~____~.

strong use of comedic insult

still suffer from usual BMW problems. Big wheels and low profile soft compound tyres = high maintenance costs and common wheel damage from poorly maintained roads.

High service costs, expensive insurance, and wank factor.

You're talking to someone who also wants a z4

[alr33x]

135i coupe over priced for what they are may as well spend the extra get a 335 coupe

Orr get a m135 hatch massive amounts of win there.

If you can afford one its clearly not an issue maintenance/insurance etc hate how people go on about that you want cheap servicing/insurance by a holden or a kia.. wank factor like a big look at me exhaust?

135m has won best sports car two years running from RACV.

The 1M much better though

Get used to it son...it's either stick it out with the 10+ year old Jap cars, join the hellaflush Commodores and Falcons, or Euro hot hatch it.

It's a solid little car and I found it to be about on par with the E46 M3 for performance/handling, which was the flagship performance BMW in it's day. Would have no issues putting 50k into one, but at the moment they are hovering in the low 50s at the lower end of the market.

That engine has massive potential too...3 litre turbo in a what, 1400-1500kg car.

335 still would present better value even in the second hand market and its a mans car

[KURAUN]

would love a 335i hardtop convertible

Fk this man's / girl's car bullshit, do you really let stigma like that dictate what sort of car you drive? Some wanker in a 760 will call all of them girls cars...

well played.

my mrs' dad has one and as much as he loves the car, has had to replace a wheel or two and goes through a lot of tyres (not just the rears). But yeah, get some decent suspension, a set of wheels and tyres and it would be a great track car. Would need to do a bit of research into BMW brakes though, guy i work with has a 335 hard-top convertible in aqua and someone mentioned something about BMW using dated brake technology

Bingo. 335 similar in price and you won't have to defend your manhood
