It's official the 135i 2-door coupe has arrived! Looks like the 135i model will be sold with an M-sport kit that resembles the e90 sedan Msport kit (Notably no foglights like the all current //M vehicles), with a rear diffuser that actually resembles the one from the forthcoming M3, all visible from the short videos.
Looks like they are targeting it right at the younger generation too, a tuned up 135i would be one very fast car! Will be very interesting to see what price range it lands in.

Thanks for the info. I wonder though if it's headed to Australia; we seem to miss out on a lot that BMW offers the rest of the world.

1q2w3e4r · 07-03-2007, 06:44 PM

We always get their range toppers though so it'll lob sometime next year I'd expect.

astra · 07-03-2007, 07:41 PM

ahhh that coupe is so ugly!

e93 · 07-04-2007, 02:22 AM

Drive.com.au released this review yesterday.

The flagship 1 Series model, expected to cost between $75,000 and $85,000 in Australia, sits on 18-inch alloy wheels and BMW's M Sports suspension. The braking system comprises six-piston calipers at the front, and two-piston calipers at the rear.

The 135i is the only 1 Series Coupe to be equipped with an M Aerodynamics Package. This includes enlarged central front air dam, flanked by air intakes either side. The rear bumper also incorporates an air dam, which in dark grey contrasts with the main body colour chosen.

I agree with Astra on the look. Perhaps I havent got used to it yet. But the 1 coupe still has the very "BMW look".

1q2w3e4r · 07-04-2007, 02:59 AM

At $80k might have to get one.

VGR00 · 07-04-2007, 03:28 AM

Big powerfull engine in small body + good suspension + excellent brakes = A DAMM LOT OFF GOOD FUN !!!!

But ......

How many friggin models and engine variations do we need from the one car maker.

BMW //MPOWER · 07-04-2007, 04:53 AM

Can you believe it!!
The 135i will be faster than the 335i, the E46 M3 and on par with the E46 M3 CSL over the 0-60mph. For $80k this is one weapon, imagine what Procede and so on will do to it!

There goes the resale on the E46 M3 and 335i !!! Well maybe not because the 1 series in that photo looks like BMW still need to send it to beauty school.

You'll probably change your mind after you see it in the dealer showroom. I can already imagine a FULLY HECTIC black spahire 135 with 19inch rims
