I saw the 1 series at the car show but there was no mention of an M1 coming to America. They had a 118i and a 135i

BMW has released no information regarding a possible higher performance version than the 135i. I honestly don't think they'll put one out, as it would endanger the M3.

Also, there is no 118. Just 128 and 135.

The 135i is a nice little car. 300hp twin turbo in a light package. Only the M5 and M6 are faster. However, after you fully option it out, you're looking at well over $40k. Keep it fully loaded at around $35k and it'd be a much better deal.

BMW just did a test here in germany recently and the 135i beat the M3 on the track. I am looking hard at one. the other option was the Audi S5 but 51K for a 12.5:1 compression motor not much room for improvement other than the RS-5 heads when it comes out.

So next week is the Geneva auto show, its the biggest auto show since the TII concept debuted last year,
if there is a strong reception to it at Geneva BMW will consider making it
an actual model with a TT 4 Cylinder and relativley light weight (3100lbs).
It would compete with the Cayman S and Audi TT-S and probably smoke em.
We shall see in the coming months. And nearly all the visual stuff on the
TII is going to be available through BMW Performance Parts!! The 1 series is brilliant, expensive but brilliant!

look online douche

No. If you are going to post a good thread about a car, you should at least post a link. I'm NOT going to do research just to find out what YOU want to talk about.

Likewise, examine the SVTP rules regarding flaming... which is why my response doesn't say what you are.

Do you have difficulty reading? Do you have difficulty understanding rules and following them? Perhaps so. Otherwise you would have understood the reference to the SVTP rules regarding flaming in non-smackdown threads.

As for your thread:

WORTHLESS WITHOUT PICS OR AT LEAST A LINK!!!

:kaboom:

metikal where did you get the tii info from??????????????????????????????


dale how can you have a new car shipped tax exempt??

It is part of the Military Sales program. It is delivered here in Germany, you drive it around for 100 miles and then it gets shipped to the US as a used car. No Federal tax paid on used imports. BMW also has a program where you pick up the car in Europe and save money through that program. i don;t know the details of that one.
