328 for 135?

I currently own a 328 coupe, auto, went down to the dealership the other day to get some lights replaced, and while waiting, had a chat with my dealer who was trying to convince me to trade my car in for a 135i, manual.
The trade in value for my 328 would exactly cover that of a new 135i, who thinks I should trade?

3 series is soooo much better looking, but the 135 will definitely outperform it

What's more important to you, style or performance?

Fully loaded 328i for a barebone 135i ???

If you equip 135i exactly the same as your 328i, you'll owe them anywhere from $5,000 to $7,500 depending upon the condition of your trade-in.

Ummmmm.... Where Do you Get This Info From???

3's have better track times


compare them and you'll see the only thing 1 slightly beats 3's in is a 0-60 and its minor... and for bare bone stocks

i know my 3 isnt stock

the 135i doesn't have the best looks compared to your 328i (my opinion), but it outperforms and it still looks so nice! I would totally trade!!

Yep depends on packages and your immediate vehicular requirements. Don't be so quick to be awayed by your stealership, study the deal carefully
