“Road & Track” magazine called the 2013 BMW 135is “our undisputed favorite BMW of the moment,” and for several good reasons, all demonstrated by this one-owner example driven just 19,139 miles. Brightly clothed in BMW classic Alpine White with a snappy Coral Red leather interior, it runs under the captivating power of the same 3.0L inline-6 found in the 135 since 2011, but with a twin-scroll turbocharger, a splendid exhaust note and an additional 20 HP on tap, raising peak output to 320 HP and 317 lb-ft of torque. It’s all handled with aplomb by a smooth but sturdy 6-speed manual transmission and results in a 4.5-second dash to 60 MPH and a governed 147 MPH top speed.
Solid ergonomics and classic features—think a thickly padded steering wheel, a perfect driving position, excellent braking feel and a precise short-throw shifter—highlight the 135is’ driver-oriented interior, which offers power windows and locks, air conditioning, adjustable-bolstered heated power front seats, a power moonroof and a Harman Kardon surround sound stereo. Add in such details as a Sport suspension, 6-piston front disc brakes with ABS, aero body pieces and Bridgestone Potenza performance tires on beautiful lightweight alloy wheels, and this BMW 135is explains its style and performance in every way imaginable.
