I love the look of the M coupes. When done right they really look good.
But, I guess I'd rather have a new 128 over a used 2000 M coupe oor 335 over a 2001+ M coupe. Simply for the fact that maintenance is covered, warranty and knowing how the engine was broken in. |

BTW, with mods the 135i will blow away the F430. Yeah, right. |

Well, if you compare the 135i with a 2001/2002 E36 M-Coupe (which can be had for well under 30k) then the pricing isn't an issue.
Therefore, it makes it a valid comparison in terms of power figures and overall size. Personally, I love the E36 M-coupes. However, I know all too well that it won't be practical for my needs. So the 135i still holds the top spot for my next car.

My main concern with the Z coupe is its E46M3 engine that was known to break down. Despite BMW claimed the 2004.5 ones are okay I am still uncomfortable with it.

No contest the 135 with a N54 with simple bolt ons will walk all over an M coupe in the streets, plus though it is a small back seat the 1 coupe at least has that usable option.

Do you mean the "M 1 COUPE ?" Or is there another one that I don't know about yet. If it's the M1 coupe, I think 2010 is too long of a wait for it. I'm already on the waiting list for the 135i. I'll drive that one for 2 years, then compare the 2. I do like the look of the M1 coupe though.
