Replying to: cdnpinhead (Jun 11, 2009 7:19 pm) So then I wonder why do so many Canadians retire to Arizona.  Must be for the year-round golfing, since it can't be for the hockey!

Can somebody recommend where to buy this kind of parts? Like Thule TH460R. RB43. 3028, which bike carrier is better, etc. Thanks. |
|
| I've got the Thule racks on my '01 Prelude and love 'em. They are super sturdy and once you figure out how to put them on, it is a quick and easy 5 minute hob to take on and off. | |

So a question for you owners of the 128i series. I am looking at purchasing one, and trying to get feedback from previous owners. In particular, I'd like your thoughts of the pros and cons of the car in your opinion... I'd appreciate any input or experience of current owners! Thanks!

|
| I would identify the 128i as my choice were I able to buy a new car at this time. I live in the Northeast and travel on interstates frequently as well as the usual local driving. Despite effort I have only seen one 1 series BMW in the two years since they arrived. I'm beginning to think that the car is a hoax like the moon landing. Where are they selling and showing? | |
|
Has anyone had a chance to compare the M-Sport to the standard suspension (with performance tires, not the available all-seasons which presumably bring a lower speed limiter with them) on the 135i? I assume both suspensions are the same and that the M-Sport is differentiated only by the use of the staggered tire set up. The 1 series is reported to understeer more than the 3. If my assumption about setup is correct, does the standard car give more neutral (less understeer) handling than the M-Sport? |
|
|
The 135i isn't available with standard suspension. Only M-Sport. Do they really make them available with all season tires in America? Does anybody want all seasons, ever, at all?

Replying to: mr42hh (Aug 09, 2009 10:20 pm) Yep, the only way to get decent tread mileage is with all-seasons, I find that I can't get much more than 15,000 miles on sticky-tread summer performance tires. There are plenty of performance rated A/S tires that'll deliver twice that mileage on a rwd car. |
