- The n55 is just sublime. You will love it too.
- I had an e93 (335i) The 135 is more nimble, a bit faster and more sporty feel due to the smaller size
- Don't have a 135, but I didn't like the tiny back seats for those once in a while need for them.
- The DCT is definitely different than the standard automatic. Extremely quick to shift; love the various modes on it. You'll notice the difference and probably like it.
- The manual transmission is the same on the 128 and 135. It's the torque difference that you will appreciate.... not the transmission.
- Again - the 1-series is smaller, therefore more nimble and more engaging in the twisties.
- purple angel eyes? Have no idea!
- Get the HK
