Autoblog posted this today about the 135. (http://autoblog.com/entry/1234000733048825) As suggested previously it will be a 300+hp turbo 6 and will be the starting point for an M version. Will it make it to the U.S.? I'm still hearing 2007 with no particular versions named. -Brian

135i - with small and bigger turbo 333hp 0-100 around 5sec maybe lower
it will be outstanding car

2.0L Pepsi is better than 1.6l Honda :rofl:

So how much do you think this version will cost us(U.S.)? If its near 35k, I'm in!

2007 would imply we'd get a regular 230i in 2006.

Since it shares so much with the E90, I doubt a 235ti would cost less than $45k - maybe it would start at $40k.

I'm guessing the 230i will start at low $30k.

Well if you're right, I guess I'll have to suffer with my 260 horse 230. :)
