Press release...
HARTGE has given the world's first inline six-cylinder engine with twin turbo-chargers and a second generation direct-injection system a power boast of 44 hp - and that at the same time as maintaining its extremely good fuel consumption of only 9.2 litres per 100 kilometres (EU combined). HARTGE not only offers an additional ECU, which transforms the 3-litre engine of the compact BMW 135i Coupé into a powerhouse generating a massive 257 kW (350 hp) at 5660 rpm and 480 Nm (lb-ft 354) at 2950 rpm, and naturally also the chance to enjoy unlimited driving pleasure at speeds of up to 280 km/h. For the dash from 0 to 100 km/h (0 - 62 mph), the 135i Coupé from HARTGE is half a second faster than its standard brother while the 25 mm lower sports suspension guarantees safety thanks to even greater directional stability and outstanding handling on twisting roads.
Beguiling looks and sound, improved aerodynamics
The interaction of the visually appealing aerodynamic parts - front spoiler lip, roof spoiler, lip for boot lid, rear diffuser and side sills - brings about a significant improvement in negative lift at high speeds. Simply chic: The set of CLASSIC 2 aluminium wheels in the dimension 9 x 20" offset 40 fitted with Pirelli PZero Nero tyres (245 / 30 ZR 20 front and rear). The 135i Coupé from HARTGE is a car that should not only be seen and driven but also heard. And this is possible thanks to a sonorous exhaust note, which emerges from the dual round tail pipes of the stainless steel rear silencer embedded in the left and right of the diffuser.
Other HARTGE accessories help make the car more individual. They include: A decal set in metallic anthracite, a set of carbon (silver or black) casings for exterior mirrors, emblems for the bonnet and boot lid and a HARTGE insignia (140 x 32 mm).
Sports interior
For all models, HARTGE offers an attractive 3-spoke leather steering wheel with silver (or black) carbon inserts. This material is also used for the HARTGE steering wheel cover for vehicles with BMW 3-spoke sports airbag steering wheel with (and without) multi function and for interior trim for the dash board, gear lever panelling and door handles. HARTGE offers an illuminated gear knob, including an alcantara gaiter for the 6-speed manual gear box and the handbrake handle in a tasteful combination of leather and aluminium. Fully in aluminium, however, is the three-piece set of pedals, ideal for skilful heeling and toeing, while silver metallic dial, red needle and a speedometer reading up to 300 km/h underscore the sporting impression created by this exciting Coupé that, fully equipped by HARTGE, costs exactly € 48,162.14, excluding VAT. It goes without saying that all HARTGE components can also be retrofitted individually.

I dig the 1 series, got to drive one a couple weeks ago. It was an auto, and if they drop a true dual clutch transmission in it, I'd consider one. Fuckers aren't cheap though.

If you don't track, this is pointless.
By the way, the 1 series is great to drive, especially the 135i. Design wise, it's pretty old - main design theme is from 2004. The wide open eyes and sagging belly line are two features that often receive criticism. Adding the small price difference to 335i, no BMWCCA rebate, less availability, tighter rear space, it just makes more sense to get a 335i coupe for daily drive.

I know people hate this car but I have to say it's fast as hell.
I was behind one at a stoplight and when it turned green the guy took off ... I didn't try to keep up because I like having a clean driving record but just in comparison to how I was accelerating the 135i stunned me.
The car seems like it's a 4.5 second to 60 car or lower.
