New Delivery of BMW 135i Pics, Exhaust System, Review
Thanks to 1addicts member MihaSLO for these pics.
Here’s his review:
“So, how does it go?
Well, let me tell you, I haven’t yet driven an EVO or 335 or some kind of really fast car, I was once passenger in EVO8.
But this thing goes. You have to know, we were only ably to push it to around 3500 rpm, beacuse of break in period.
But, it just flys. 5th gear, uphill, and passing a car? bah, just tap the gas a bit.
It is so revy, so responsible. Down shifts with bliping are just one big smile.
The sound gets ”fatter” at around 2500rpm. It really thunders if it is slowly moving,revving a bit and you are hearing it from outside.
Steering?
Just think where you want to go, and this car will turn in by his self.
Put a pedal down in the middle of corner and you will feel how the rear end helps to turn in.
Floor it in the middle of 180-turn in 2nd gear and you will found out that it is tail happy.(Mind you, we we’re not pushing it hard at all)
Suspension?
Our previous car was Audi A3 Sportback with S-Line package and susp.
That thing was rock solid, you could feel every little stone on the asphalt, but 135i is softer, BUT it drives better. This susp is so worked out, I still can’t believe it. It is comfortable and hard at the same time. They must have spent a lot of time on it.
Suma sumarum: go out, bang all you saving pigs, beg your mamma for money, sell one kidney(you got 2, right), work over-time, sell your kids.
This car is THAT good.”
