Now on YouTube: BMW 135i

The above video is what’s called B-roll in the TV industry. That means news programs or other broadcast shows play this in the background while an anchor talks over it. Usually B-roll is boring stuff, but BMW’s simple B-roll video of the 135i makes us want one really, really badly. Like right now. Spring 2008 seems a long time away. People may be camping out in front of their local BMW dealers for this one.

Admittedly, I don't have the most trained eyes when it comes to new cars I have yet to see, but to me, this thing looks exactly like the 335i. I'm sure it must be smaller, though, but how? What dimensions are shorter?

We don't have specs on the new coupe yet but supposedly it is the same length as the 1 series four door hatch which is 166 inches long. a Bmw 3 Series coupe is 180.6 inches long.

I am 6'3 and i hope i fit into this car!!! i want one in silver with the red leather.. just like the 335 coupe my friend has! wow... the little car is hot again!!!

While we wait for BMW North America to release brochures on the 128i and 135i coupes, you can download 3 European BWM 1 Series brochures and a 1 Series Accessories catalog at: http://www.bmw135i.net
