I'll post up pics later when i get home. And yes the bmw is fast..... test drive was just a cover of what this thing can really do!!!
Get the JB3(Juice box) and make sure you get an extra strap to strap yourself and a good diper. It pulls like a mother...

Congrats on the buy. Def. fun cars to drive along with the 335. Are you going to mod it at all? If you do just watch out on the programmers because bmw has programmed the car to know if one is installed. I work for bmw thats how I know.
Congrats but please tell me you got the steptronic... Not that the 6 speed manual is bad but the steptronic is just a killer. It must be nice to have the Evo and the 135i as daily drivers.

Ive heard the tranny called smg and step-tronic... yes I got that. All the trafic im in you could give me another stick after driving the evo for so long. Ive looked into the jb3 but they are on back order till 11-15-08.... which sucks because for 600 bucks you get 100 whp and 100+ tq...... great buy in my eyes!! Im having it tinted tonight so ill get some pics up when its clean!!
135i is a cool tuff looking little ride.
I still would love to have a 135i vert. with the steptronic 6 speed.
The vert material looks like carbon fiber.
Totally different ride than the evo is huh!!!!! Nice to pamper yourself in the bimmer.
Also the E diff in the 135/335, is pretty damn nice in itself.. turn off everything and you can leave two long tire stripes as long as you like.

That 135 is a seriously under rated car.... dont quote me, but i think a 335 will beat a stock evo, so imagine what a 135 will do. same great engine, less weight. the inline 6 that bmw produce is voted by some as the worlds best engine, and with a cople turbos on aswell...... awesome. I think there diffferent sized turbos to help eliminate turbo lag.
concrats on the new car aswell

As per the size of the turbos, they are the same, tiny TD03-10c(very small). The 335d(sold in Europe) uses two different size turbos though.
