Irvine BMW has a 135i

I just stopped by and saw the Sap. Black 135i, Auto, red leather. Its quite a striking car in person. The brakes / wheels look great, the interior is great looking. I was disapointed by the auto, as I wanted to check out the manual gear shifter. Either way, it was great to see the car in the flesh. Plus that had an M3 coupe and sedan right outside :headbang:

Finding a manual demo is going to be tough.

Had a short drive in the Black Sapphire Metallic/Coral Red 135i Steptronic, Sports package, ...... This car is available now. It is loaded.

Loved the Coral Red Sport Seats and the M Steering Wheel. This is a dramatic improvement over the 128i I was in Saturday.

Driving impressions: I had a very short drive including a nice sweeping freeway on and off ramp experience where I could get a feel for the suspension, engine & brakes: which are all excellent. Since I would be using this car in similar driving conditions this car does not disappoint.

Definitely thumbs - up for the 135i. This car is everything you want in the low-end torque and stopping department.

Of course, I still want the M-tuned version from BMW.

Make mine Silverstone Silver II with Anthracite and Black Cloth/Novillo Leather with Pilot Sport PS2s.

What's the dealer's mark-up for the 135i and the M3 sedan there in Irvine?
