Nice to finally see a 1 Series owner compare the 2.

Would you say the 135is feels more BMWish?
I enjoyed driving the M235 VERY much. I drive a 135i as DD, drive my 1M on weekends, just sold my track built E36 M3 and have had 3 E30 M3"s in last 7 years.

The 1M is the baddest and you haters that didn't get one should get over it. E30 M3's are fun but not compared to current options. A great car but a "Classic" and it's easy to get more better.

135i and E36 M3's are great options and nice price points.

The M235 is a very strong "BMW" and may be one of their best products in years!

It's not a Classic built for a specific reason(e30 m3) and it's not a limited edition future collector(1m) and it's not as cheap to run/use as a E36/E46/E82, but is, NO DOuBT a bad ass BMW in every sense of the term.
