0.9% tempation leading me astray from the 135i!
hehe, so my 135i is coming this week! I could be driving off with it next Sunday afternoon.
Sitting around doing my final finance calculations and realized the 0.9% is screwing with my mind now. For the same monthly payment, I can have the same 135i configured options in a 335i Coupe! The 335i is now tempting me with its sleek lines and nice rear end. Comfortably taking 4 adults around town while having a more refined professional image. if only the .9% was available for the 135i, the payments would be easier on the wallet, and I wouldn't even be thinking of the 335i! oh what to do, what to do...!! |

To be honest, if I hadn't been as far along in the process, I may have ended up ordering a 335i. As it is, I'll enjoy my car and never look back! (Until I can afford a 335 vert or an M3!)

take the 335i. if professionalism is important, it does appear a little older.
the 135i is faster, the 335i more refined. will you miss the 6 piston brakes and the electronic limited slip? if not, take the 3. will you be ok with seeing your 3er around a lot? if yes, then take the 3. the 3 is a sexy beast, but i will say that the 1 was never meant to be a cheaper car, only more enthusiast oriented. I am being devil's advocate. If you have made it to this sentence without turning back to us, I will see you over at E90post!

The .9% is a great thing to happen prob save you about 4-5grand depends on where you live but, the only thing I don't like about with the 335i is that is doesn't have the M package anymore(shadowline trim, M steering wheel & shift knob). Actully does anyone know why BMW got rid of that package and could it happen to the 135i as well?

maybe they got rid of it because they felt the 1 was more worthy of those accessories?
you don't want to put M badges on everything...
