Good. It's a great car for $23,000. It's a piece of **** for $30,000.

Re: washed, waxed and a suprise!

yeah, If I had 30K to spend on a car. it just couldn't or WOULD be a MUGEN Si. It would be either the 1 series BMW or the Evo. I have a 07 Si coupe and the MUGEN is no faster....FAIL!. it's nice looking but not worth it....besides, i'm not into 4doors. < with the exception for the EVO.

Re: washed, waxed and a suprise!

hell yeah if you know someone at the dealership you get thousands and thousands of dollars off! I have 2 friends that work at 2 different dealerships. She got her dad a truck for mad cheap, can't remember exact prices. It's who you know in life, NOT what you know.

I'd laugh my *** off if any dealer tried to move a 1-series (especially a 128i) at a premium. The base price is $28,600. With an option or two, you could get out the door for $30k + TTL. But... you'd be driving a feminine, bubbly looking car.

This is the only picture I have of it and this one looks decent. The unmodded models don't look nearly this good.

Re: washed, waxed and a suprise!

well true enthusiasts will not be getting the sad 128i, and instead will opt for the beastly 135. When its all said and done, you'd be better off buying a 3 series.
