Hey guys. I've been looking around these forums ever since I first heard of the 135i and I finally made an account. Yesterday I went to my local dealer to try the 135i, to make up my mind between a 335i and a 135i, and I gotta say, the 135i was really something different. At first I expected them to feel just about the same, but I really got sucked in to the 135i. Now I am looking around trying to find a black 135i in stick, but looks like I'll probably end up having to order one and wait the 2 months.

But I had a question, I'm expecting that i'm probably gonna end up paying MSRP or a bit less, is that the case or did anyone have some luck with their purchase?

Welcome to the group!! If you are set on getting a stick, you will probably have to order it. I think there have been a few sticks on the lot in SoCal so far. I know Long Beach had one maybe a month ago or so.

In terms of price, I think many people have been getting about 500 under MSRP roughly on average here in the past month.

Thanks everyone. And Jeff, the simplest way to put it would be that the 335i coupe felt like more of a luxury car and the 135i felt really sporty. And call me childish, but the M badges on the steering wheel and the shift knob really appealed to me hahaha
