Spy Shots: BMW 135ti

Here are some new Spy Shots of the upcoming BMW 135ti, which is supposedly BMW’s fighter of Volkswagen’s R32. The BMW 135ti is expected to have the same engine as the new 335i with the twin-turbo 300 horsepower engine. The car is still under development and is expected to launch sometime late 2007 and will hit dealerships in 2008. No word on if we will see it in the states.

I actually have seen this car up close in real life in the states.

I was passing by The Walt Disney Concert Hall in Downtown Los Angeles. And pretty much everyday there is some kind of filming going on there.

So I stopped to check out what it was and it was this car. They were filming a comercial.

The BMW does not look too bad. It was an OK car. Nothing special.

It will sell like crazy though.

The VW Rabbit is better than the regular 1 series. The 1 series offers nothing special at all.

I like the 1. But it need a new nose, and better interior with soft plastic. I have tested the 116 and 130 and the smile wont leave your face, 130i its a dream to drive. No ratle and a nice thick steering wheel. Superb handling. I would like to have one, but a price around $100.000 is way to much. 330i cost $114.000. still to much :(

Nice rims.

Besides... meh.

I'd take an A3 2.0T DSG over this any day of the week, FWD and all.

Thats actually the new 3 door of the current 1 series. If you look closely you will see that the rear shut like is actually a piece of tape its not reas as is the handle.

It may well have the 3ltr turbo engine in it but the article has missed what that car actually is.
