KC, not sure on specific costs but off the top of my head I was somewhat surprised at the cost of used 135/128 vs 3 series since original MSRP was semi close (granted I was looking at coupes). But if you go back to 2009 I think they are in the low 20's, a E9x vert 2 years older is about the same $. But personally for the $ I would look for a E46 M3 vert, but that is just me. I would trade my vette for one since they Ruby could go for a ride.

For the $ difference (3k ish) between at 128 and a 135 I would get the 135. Sure the 128 gets better MPG, still has decent power but it's not like this is you DD so do you really care about a few extra MPG.

I am not sure how well a seat will fit in the back 1 series as the seating area is pretty small, hell the E9X rear seats are a little short on depth as well.
