Roadfly.com - 2008 BMW 1 Series Coupe Preview

[nethater]

If U want a lower priced 128i just wait a year. High gas prices and poor sales are forcing BMW to revisit a 4 cylinder engine for 1 and 3 series.

german plates ;)

The 135i starts at around $35,000 with no options. By the time you add a few options that most of us would want, the price easily jumps to $40,000 and higher. I saw one at a California dealership that listed for almost $45,000. You can get a 128i for less than 30,000 with NO OPTIONS and less performance.

looks like an acura legend. First I was disappointed, but I would buy the coupe in a heartbeat. The other versions of the new 1 series are UGLY.

sounds conservative 5.3sec? Well a merc e class break with 286hp accelerates in 6.6seconds... here we have a car, which ways as much as the e class bonnet.... i bet itll hit 5.3 or 5.4...the only issue is the tires... cant have them too wide compared to the e class, loosing time.

[turkorium]

300HP..........toll.........

[medalofhonor1919]

prima

[DrCapoeira]

feminine design and good for midgets, 5 thousand more than it really costs... No thanks.

[DigableDude]

300 hp? WoW!!I want one but wait, the 350Z already offers over 300hp with an available navi system for less than what this thing will cost...BMW dealers will tact on a 3-5k mark-up on this car because they know you will buy it anyway...No thanks!

[Jordanaire]

I'm currently saving up my funds for one of these next year.

[Stratos666]

this car is a porsche killer!!!!

[Psgpimp16]

idk what to do... should i buy this or the 335i? i love the 335i but its really expensive.. but htis car seems relatively cheap and has the engine i love. im not too sure about the int design either... that slab they put b/w the vents and the knobs seems out of place.. i think bmw could have done better... and the idrive display seems like itll have glare problems from the sun since its not coverd like in other models. and no slip dif?? this car is gona suck around corners!...

[LORDAVICHO]

can you tell me the price on the 135?.......thanks

[Psgpimp16]

yeah actually you can go to the BMWUSA(.)com and check out detail prices. 135i msrp turns out ot be 34,900

[mkeeeee]

BMW's MSRPs are always ridiculously conservative. Once you add on basic packages the price rockets up.

[azamar1000]

around USD 34,0000

[LORDAVICHO]

thanks.......in mexico got to be like 45000 usd

[azamar1000]

$45,000? are you serious? por que tan caro?

here in the USA with 45K you can get the corvette or the lotus elise, pero no sabia que fuese tan caro.

[LORDAVICHO]

aqui te cogen literalmente........un passat v6 cuesta 37000dlls, un bmw 325i cuesta 50000 dlls, un cayman cuesta 70000 ddls........de seguro este por tener el motor del 335 lo van a vender carisimo

[azamar1000]

man! te sugiero que te vengas para aca cuando quieras comprar un auto nuevo, te mando saludos desde Oklahoma y que el Senor te bendiga.

[LORDAVICHO]

[iwantanAUDIA4]

[maico125]

Interesting specs but man it is (still) ugly!! What is up, or who @ BMW has their head up their collective......

[royalfella2]

haah what a nice coupee!! love BMW

According to this, piss off its on the internet man!, this looks to be about 350lbs lighter than the 335i. With times 0-60 about 0.1 seconds faster. Base price of $32 so make that $35-$38 from my experience. Styling looks like the older 3 series.

[stratogustav]

I saw a big BMW sedan, I still don't know what model it was, I did like a lot the one I saw because of the size, I don't like Z4 or any other of the small BMW, again only because of the size!

[Fryx9]

I'm guess the most it could be is 40k, but that's absurd. I say the 135i will be around 32k-35k standard price. it's small with a beast twin turbo engine!

[FooDoo6]

awesome video. it'd be nice to get one of these beauties :)

[iamwutiam]

no limited slip???

[mustafaimal]

watch?v=qEyLM1wqcHg CABRIO SHOW

[TypeR1013]

If its only 30K I am going to get two

[pacman2k1]

damn 135i ! enough power for that little tingy!

[xrangerx]

most likely 30k, since 3-coupe starts at 35k

[cantstand2lose]

I am not sure but I want one

[melikechevy1955]

I wonder how much this car is going to cost.
