1. you can either afford a 135 or you can't. if you can, the decision is a no brainer from a performance perspective.

2. if the dealerships that you're talking to claim they don't have a manual, they're lying. you need to work on your credibility and demonstrate that you are a serious buyer with a good credit score and a solid down payment.

3. i pre-ordered my car and have had it for over a year. in fact, i bought it sight unseen. no test drive. you don't need one to make the right decision. do some more research. the car is amazing for the price.

4. the 128 is a solid car, especially for a first time buyer. consider your financial position and what impact spending the extra money on a 135 will have on you today and five years from now.

5. if you're still sol, i'd recommend showing up to a local 1er meet. it's highly unlikely that anyone will let you drive their car but if you're lucky and present yourself well, you might score a ride.
