2006 BMW 130i

I wasn't too excited about the BMW 1 series until I heard about the 130i model. This is the top of the line BMW 1 series which comes with a 3.0L, 258 hp, 221 lb-ft engine and a 6-speed manual transmission. 0-60 mph should go by in about 6.0 seconds.

I don't get it. I would've expected it to be a bit quicker, since it must weigh less than the 330i with the same engine. Oh well, still this is much more exciting than a 4 banger BMW 1 series that I was expecting.

Refer to AutoWeek's article for more information.
