2012 BMW1 Series 128i For Sale

I purchased this 7 year old BMW 128i convertible with 72,000 miles on a whim just before convertible season last fall. I opted for the normally aspirated BMW instead of turbo/supercharged options to keep maintenance costs within reason since Im not a racer and this is not my only car. I freakin love it. Seats are super comfortable, handling is very precise, fuel consumption is 26+ mpg over the last year over 8k miles, and the stock stereo thumps. Frankly, this is the most fun car I have ever had. It is small but not cramped, agile without being harsh, fit and finish are excellent, top drops and raises quickly, no leaks. I wrench on my own cars and the simplicity of the BMW is great. I replaced the brakes myself, routine things are not difficult. Overall, Im super pleased with this car.

No complaints except for the high pressure fuel pump failure. BMW NA has extended the warranty on this part to 10 years/100k.

I have had 12 BMWs (cars and motorcycles) - so I’m a fan of the maker. The 128i is a fun convertible with plenty of get up and go. I bought it with the 6 speed manual - which I prefer over auto. If you prefer a lot more get up and go - get the 135i with the dual turbo. Great car for two people - the back seats really only accommodate smaller people (but great for kids or dogs and groceries). As long as you maintain BMWs, my experience has been that they run very well.
