What's /o/ think of the BMW 1 series?
There's a bunch of 2013s for sale in my area for pretty cheap.
>for pretty cheap.
which is?
bretty gud
as always with a good bmw, please get it in manual (thankfully it only ever came in rwd)
the 128i is nice. quick but not fast but they're pretty cheap used and the engine is pretty reliable.
the 135i is damn quick stock and really fast when given the infamous jb4 tune. the engine is a problem child though, leaks a lot

3 series for ladies.
>>17030796
Around $15k.

>the engine is a problem child though, leaks a lot
So stay away from the 135?

I like small cars.
1 series has always came across as way too gay/girly for any straight man to drive
then their proportions make them look silly on top of that
>>17030843
The size doesn't add any character as it would in a kei car or Mini though, just reduces practicality. It'll be fully equipped so is unlikely to be lightweight either.
>>17030843
Bet you also like small twinks too, huh bby?

>just reduces practicality
For a single living in a city it only increases it.

Most of those issues were fixed in later year models. I stayed away from them for their head gasket problems. But it's no more a problem than any other car these days.
>>17030793
There is a reason so many are for sale for cheap.
Avoid.
>>17030883
Because people's 5 year leases are up.
You can get a 2008 328i for like 8k
>>17030898
Pretty much this DESU. The car isn't that bad. It's average. And it's a good base to tune.
>>17030843
>So stay away from the 135?
probably, but that power is fucking great, i believe jb4 puts it at around 380 wheel horsepower which is very good in something that weighs ~3400lbs
>>17030817
>the engine is a problem child though, leaks a lot
literally not true
>>17030843
pretty cheap but you get a shittier engine for a 2013
>>17030863
what does that even mean
>>17030883
what reason is that? Tell me what your ass is saying to you?
>>17030905
a 328 is not a good base to tune, and a 2013 135 is not either
Get a 135 with an N54 or go home OP, HPFP is not a problem for the last 6 years
>>17030955
>not a good base to tune
>I never said anything about a 328
LOL wtf are you talking about? Dudes are getting 700whp+ in these things on stock blocks.

And there are many more examples close to this on the bimmer forums.
>>17030978
That is an N54, not thae N55 OP is talking about. Read the rest of the post before you spout some more stupid shit.

.....are you joking or a fucking moron?
