2008 BMW 1 Series Coupe

March 29th 2008 16:37


The 2008 1 Series Coupe is a 2-door, 4-passenger luxury sports coupe, available in two trims, the 128i and the 135i.

Upon introduction, the 128i is equipped with a standard 3.0-liter, I6, 230-horsepower engine that achieves 18-mpg in the city and 28-mpg on the highway. The 135i is equipped with a standard 3.0-liter, I6, 300-horsepower, turbo engine that achieves 17-mpg in the city and 25-mpg on the highway. A 6-speed manual transmission with overdrive is standard on both trims, and a 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is optional.


The 2008 1 Series Coupe is all-new for 2008.

I gave this car a test drive, and fell in love. Its just an amazing car. Its something that can't be explained in words. It handles so perfect without heavy or light engagements neither does it feel either. Its so sporty, yet has that little luxury also that makes it a drivers car. I see this car being very successful on BMW's part because its just nice. Its safe, its powerful and it gets to you. I loved the transmission, I had no problems with that. The throws were just right not to long or harsh and felt very like it snapped in gear perfect. Interior wise was great, I love the way BMW goes about their design and my only con about the car is the rear seating space. Its just small. Overall A car
