Hartge BMW 135i - I love this car
I love this CAR!!!!!
BECKINGEN, Germany — After showing us what it could do with the BMW 1 series aerodynamically and inside the cabin, Hartge has taken it one step further and released its final treatment for the sporty, pint-size Bimmer.
The main event of the Hartge tune is the ECU upgrade that squeezes 44 more horses out of the 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-6, bringing total power to 350 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque. That means the 135i has a 0-60-mph time that is a half-second faster at less than 4.8 seconds, and it can now reach a top speed of 174 mph.
The exterior features a bold body kit with front and rear diffusers, side skirts and rear roof and deck lid spoilers. The addition of Hartge's Classic 2 multi-spoke wheels and lowering the suspension by an inch also help give the vehicle a sportier stance.
A three-spoke leather steering wheel, aluminum pedals and a new instrument cluster are some of the options offered to spice up the interior.
A fully loaded BMW 135i with this treatment will cost the equivalent of $70,832 plus tax. All of the modifications are also available separately.
