Talk about a rare find, this 2009 BMW 135 I with optional "M" package and six speed manual transmission is a very hard to find car new, let alone used with only 6000 one owner miles on it. This is a four seat 2 door coupe packed full of goodies in a smaller sportier package then its bigger brother the 335I. The 135 I is powered by a twin-turbo charged, direct-injection 3.0-liter inline-six which you already know from the 335i. This powerhouse also won the International Engine of the Year Award—twice! The 300-hp engine sounds fabulous and spins up quickly to its 7000-rpm redline. It also delivers a 300-pound-foot punch between 1400 and 5000 rpm with minimal turbo lag. Basically the throttle response is as spontaneous as that of a naturally aspirated engine. The 135i scoots to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds, and 13.6-second quarter-mile. Top speed is a governed 155 mph. It is equipped with a precise-shifting six-speed manual, which operates quickly and smoothly with a pleasing feel. A nearly 50/50 weight distribution delivers a fantastic balance and the suspension is the BMW-brilliant mix of competence and smooth-ride that BMW is famous for. This car has been babied and is in pristine condition. The black paint looks like glass, and is set off nicely with the chrome "M" series wheels.
