Used 2010 BMW 1 Series Consumer Reviews
Powerfull, small but big enough
Made a switch from Audi because we wanted a small coupe. We have a TT and it is wonderful but does not have usable back seat. We got the M package of the 135i. This car has a very smooth powerful engine. Turbo lag is hardly noticeable. Took it on a 1100 mile trip and found it to be a very nice drive. Quiet, comfortable seats, small and maneuverable. It is a great car. Run flat tires have not been a problem so far with only 4000 mi. I would buy again only I would not buy jet black paint. It shows everything and scratches easily.
128i man oh man
I have a 09 BMW 128i Convertible with the sport and cold weather package. This is my 3rd BMW this is easily my favorite so far. It is SUCH A FUN CAR TO DRIVE! I am a car enthusiast. the 128 has a bunch of power that will throw you back into the seat handles like the car is glued to the road. Its a true drivers car very tight steering loud solid engine. The girlfriend and I love cruising around town with the top off I personally love how small it is and for a car like this its expected to be small... its a sports car. I have also done some modifications to it. Exhaust, ECU tune, tires, wheels and more. Pros: Price Powerful Handling styling Sound Easy to drive N51 and N52 engine is rock solid Cons: Tires (Recommend upgrading. too powerful for runflat tires) MPG (18 city 21 highway)

Never Turning Back
I've put 9k miles on this car since 12/2012, and from day 1, I became a BELIEVER. This car is the Benchmark of what any car under $100,000 should feel like. I've literally had ZERO issues with this car, which I find quite surprising since I drive it like I stole it 90% of the time. Long trips are very comfortable, short trips very manageable. The twin turbos have ZERO lag, and the handling is razor sharp. The breaking will have your eyes oozing out it's sockets. It feels like every grain on the road comes through the steering wheel. It's Definitely a Highway car, although I look forward to a drag challenge. Word of caution however...a gasoline sipper, it is NOT.
Therapy
My happy place is behind the wheel of my cute little Beamer. I call her Dr. Bernie, my therapist.

Hold ON
Great car. Excellent feel with the driver. Fun and practical and affordable enough for the trip to and from work. Price is reasonable if you get just the Premium package with heated seats. You don't need the 135, wonderful fast car but overkill for DD.
