Did I miss something? Who is this for?
It's for the kid. And also for me. It's a family car.

It’s a beautiful car. And it does not seem overpriced at the price for which it was bought —$255,000.

(I owned a 135iC and it was lovely —even ran snow tires and made it through many a blizzard)

What I love about this car is the interface with the driver is classic BMW. Simple. Precise. Not too avant-garde weird.

I still have my 135iC and it remains my fav car I've ever owned. To the point it has 120k miles on it and we are doing a pretty expensive refresh so I can continue daily driving it. There is nothing I can imagine for 2x the p ice that I would rather daily drive.

Alternately, if you come across a nice 128 or 230 (non-cab), LMK. Also manual.


A first car to learn on?

That 128 is kind of basic for the price, but maybe I’m not yet familiar enough with 128 pricing.

I still haven’t driven a 1er, though.
