Have mine in black, manual transmission, original owner since October 2010, and just under 80K miles today. Getting flack from friends that I have to get a new car, but I like having an overall great car that I rarely see on the road. My first new car, and I might just never sell it.
We’re on the same boat my friend I get slack from friends and family to get rid of mine because it’s to small or because it not cheap to maintain but I just haven’t found a car that can replace it. So I don’t think I’ll ever sell mine
Had the same BMW in 2018. One fix that gave me problems was the coolant lines. The plastic couplers breakdown somewhat quickly(7-10years). If you run into that problem. Just make sure you replace all the lines if one is bad.
Bruh. Just bought a 2011 1 series. Same color as yours. I love this car. Wouldnt trade it for anything. NA INLINE 6. Cant go wrong. Would love for u to post more vids. HAPPY HOLIDAYS MA DUDE. !!!!!!!
Happy holidays bro enjoy your Beamer any problems with it contact me on ig and I’d be glad to help. It’s still my daily and wouldn’t trade it for anything.
My car broke down thinking of getting one I saw on car guru pretty good deal no problems 90,000 miles it’s black but I think the white with red interior looks nice as hell cool video
I have a 2012 128i convertible and I love it, there is nothing I don't like about it, so I know you won't have many negatives about your car. Enjoy it. Every time I fill up with gasoline I add a can of Sea Foam SF16, it cleans lifters, valves, fuel injectors and much more, it gets rid of the carbon that is built up in your engine parts. Since adding this the car runs 100% better and smoother. With the mileage you have on your car, you should definitely us this product, you will see a world of difference.
Used to have the same one in 2014 but coupe 128 sport package. Loved it. Regret I sold it. Later at 2017 I got 230i cabriolet and I still have it I love it! My dad still keep his 128i 2010 but it is manual transmission and this car is just so powerful.
@@lifeofmario9137 wow, fast reply. I'm overjoyed with it. Really fun little car. Just bought it today and been having tons of fun with it. If you like I'll throw up a video with it on my channel just to show you. Anyhow, your video was informative. I learned alot about my new car from you. Thank you, subbed!
I know I'm late asf on this video but this is dope! I get my 2014 328i this Wednesday and even though it's 240 horse that's twin turbo, I feel like the 1 series would've been a better pick for me XD. You also said that you had a guy that is BMW Tech Certified and I was wondering if you could ask him what exhaust system I should run on my car?
I literally just got one myself the only thing that’s annoying is the damn seat belt alert and when u have the door open. Other than that its straight.
Good video bro but I wish ya did more analysis on the engine and it's details, I say this with love but you discuss small things and sound like what a high school student would look for in a whip. Stuff like the wheels can spin,stash spots (thumbs up on that) seats big enough for a chick approximately 110-140lbs and around 5ft tall in missionary position, comfortably for approx 10min lol. My point is MORE about the car/engine etc ya know the IMPORTANT shit my dude! :) Constructive criticism that's all bro. :)
Lmfaoo I love this but you’re definitely not wrong 😂 I will make a video based just on the specs hope you subscribed I’ll release that in the summer it’s been horrible out to be able to make any videos
Do you know what the maintenance records were like before you bought yours? Also when you said $1500, was that you DIYing or at a shop? Good video btw man
It was taken care of pretty well I don’t have all of the records just a couple from when it was taken to bmw for regular maintenance. It was me doing it my self I have a updated maintenance video on my channel
brooo the red interior is sooo boujee :o how is the sound system? audio quality? looking to buy one, but scared about the speakers being trash because it's an older car compared to the vw golf mk7, which i drive now (which the audio system is great). thanks
Lol the interior was what won me over. But honestly bro the audio isn’t bad at all it’s definitely not the loudest but it’s ok. Now you if you get one with the Harmon kardon sound system you’ll be set.
Test drove a small 2008 128i today, i really liked it, how ever am still not sure between The g35 Coupe, the Genesis and the 128i, and suggestions? nice vid bdw
Man bro I was in the same situation I went with my car because the interior won me over lol but you can’t really go wrong with any of those I’d suggest you think of 350 or 370z as well.
@@lifeofmario9137 yeah not gonna lie.. between all 3 the BMW has the best interior, when it comes to the 350/370 theyre really nice cars too but for a reason i dont think i can see myself driving a 350 everyday idk
Get the 128i future collector car, just research how the car was developed after work and on weekends. BMW skunkworks basically. I've been searching for one. Get a manual and try to get a sport package as the seats are just the best. Best seat I've ever had followed by my 93 SHO. I've owned the last series rx8 and the 1 series will outcorner it all day and much more torque. Good luck w your choice!
@@mikeb2496 I really wanted to get a 2008 128i, thing is i couldn't find the RIGHT one. Drove tested 5 or 6 128is and inspected 2, which cost me about a total of 400 dollars at BMW. Both cars had major issues, the type of issues that are bad but that a regular car amature like me wouldn't recognize. So I went with the safer (and cheaper) choice, the genesis. For NOW. but dont worry, my next car will be a 1 Series and it will also be brand new. Thanks for the help tho and good luck!
"Top window" - SUNROOF bro... jesus "Its slightly bigger than an M3" - Which one? LOL. I could be wrong but I don't even think it's bigger than 1st gen M3. Im just f'ing with you dude. They are great cars and WAY underrated. I really wish they had brought the wagon/hatch back version here.
Yep! Those are nice cars, but every time I do my buyer’s process I get stopped by reliability and stay with Japanese machines. Germans need to work on that matter.
@@lifeofmario9137 nice cars have to do some on foot reviews off those shoes you showed and my friend has a BMW favorite car grey SUV. Loves it. And take some v on foot off other shoes you come around he loves his car to. Sweet kicks.
I mean is a good car but if you need some repairs on the engine and you are fuck by parts prices you will not fuck a Mustang up trust me I own a 135 and a s550 with a 10 speed and 5.0
Ok sooo it does have Bluetooth but it’s a basic version of it according to BMW. So basically all you can do is answer or make phone calls through Bluetooth. It does have a Aux and it’s literally right above a the USB port so I have a Bluetooth adapter that is connected to the aux and being powered by the USB port. It works really good. But if you want to play music through Bluetooth you have to make sure your car has the idrive system.
the red interior with the white is so sick

I love my 1 series 100% the most fun car i have ever owned
How reliable is it?
Pressing and holding the top button to lower down the windows and sunroof is a safety feature I think, in case of a flood or emergency
That’s awesome
coming from a 5 series, it's a relief to get into a small bmw.
