    Thank for sharing! I really like your review of this m140i! I love cars and driving. I own an old Bmw 3 series e46, I like to drive this car. Actually, I was looking for a "not too expensive" but " sporty " car. And I think this m140i is just the most perfect vehicle in this range of price (I looked for almost all brands on the market, but each time it is the m140i the winner. She beats everything on its path, because for 35.000/40.000 euros on pre owned market you can buy a car which is almost new with all this qualities:
    - German
    - 6 in line 340HP
    - Nice engine sound
    - Powerful and "sporty" (340 HP " only " but hey, she's not so heavy!)
    - RWD
    - Very good chassis
    - Can be used as a daily car (comfortable, not too showy...)
    - Can be used on a track as a race car ( brakes upgrade highly recommanded
    - Can be reprogramed easily @400HP (or even more... and more.... xD )
    For me, it's just the perfect car at this range of price, and I would not have chosen the last generation of "1" too, this one is HUGELY better IMHO

    The feeling of the back of the car hunkering down squirming for grip as it's pushing you forward with a LOT of force intoxicating, especially with the noise of the straight 6.
    The B58 also seems to be proving far more reliable than previous BMW 6 cylinder engines.

      4.5 is possible with a standard car, by NOT using launch. Fastest way is to just hold it on the brake and modulate the grip with the throttle. Of course, with a cheap remap, 4 .0 seconds is possible !

    The m140i was never going to win any beauty contests but that engine and rwd will warm ANY car guy! The new one still ugly and has an engine and 4wd like an S3 a golf R a focus rs an a35 an a45.... with so many choices why would you buy a m135i? I own a 340i because it's a great family car (what I told the missus) she has no idea of the amazing 3l straight 6 under the bonnit. That's for me =]

    I like affordable small relatively light cars, hatches and rwd, this is basically the only car that I know of that give me all of those things. I'm a normal person with a normal job and I can afford my M135i. There isn't a car that ticks as may boxes for me as the M135i. Though I'd take a manual m140i if I could afford one. Yes they are the best imo.

    You forgot the m135 lci?
    That one exactly have thesame bumpers and lights as the m140
    It have also the upgrade version of the n55 engine more tunable then the pré lci n55 engine
    In fact the same engine than the m2...
    So compared to the lci m135 it isnt such a step up....

      In my opinium there is not Mutch difference between the M135 lci and m140
      M140 have 50nm more and 14hp more...
      No big numbers,both are verry tunable

      Only said there is not much in it,especialy when you want to tune them.
      Maybe theres mor possible with the m140...
      Like suspention,bumpers,lights,brakes etc infact the same car only different engine.
      I compare it with the e36 m3 the 3.0 and the 3.2
      The 3.2 is the evolution of the 3.0 not that much faster butt 6th gear 200cc more etc
