2008 BMW 135i Coupé First Impressions

2-22-2008

A modern 2002tii
In January 1968, the Bavarian automaker introduced the famous 2002tii, a sporty sedan which paved the way for the brand's racing success and future M-Series models. Well, the 135i takes over where the 2002tii left off. At $41,700 (base model), you get a high-caliber sports coupe delivering miles and miles of fun.

The 135i boasts a remarkable power-to-weight ratio.

The only black spot, as far as I'm concerned, is the very high fuel consumption. Filling up at every 350 kilometers means a lot less time behind the wheel. However, if you drive a bit more reasonably, you'll achieve a better result than us, journalists.
