2013 BMW 1 Series Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2013 BMW 1 Series love the fun and sporty driving experience it offers, with many praising its power and handling. They appreciate its responsive steering and smooth acceleration, often comparing it favorably to sports cars. However, some drivers have noted that parts can be expensive and that it lacks the latest entertainment features seen in newer models."
The 2013 BMW 1 Series is a small luxury sports car focused on driving enjoyment. It offers strong performance, excellent handling, and a premium brand image, but it sacrifices interior space, modern technology, and low maintenance costs.
March 14, 2026A coupe that’s bigger on the inside than it looks. For a car that size, the engine is more than enough and anyone can enjoy it. One of the best cars ever assembled.
October 26, 2021Love my 2008 135i. The power transfer of the twin turbo straight 6 is so smooth. It doesnt feel like youre pushing the accelerator, its more like youre opening the floodgate to unlimited power. 300HP in this tiny nimble car makes for a lot of embarrassed challengers at stoplights. No, your V6 Mustang isnt going to keep up with it. Your V8 wont either.

January 19, 2023Great value for the price. I own a 2013 White/Black, 6spd manual. This is the race car that beats the e92 M3. So much aftermarket performance support as well.
December 25, 2022I've been driving BMWs since the early 1980s. This car is the most fum of all the ones I have owned. The twin Turbo is smooth and the boost is impressive. Great breaks, excellent handling, fun ride! Reminds me of my original 2002tii.
March 23, 2014Lots of power, responsive steering, convertible. Great handling and brakes. Nice car!
February 2, 2022Cool and fun to drive. Feels more like a sports car. Expensive parts Expectedly missing newer cars feature such as a better entertainment system. Overall recommended .
September 5, 2021Ive bdeen driving the Onderful One since 2009! My current model is a 2013 128i 6spd manual RWD and I could not be happier with it. Great performance, reliable in any weather, sturdy, 50/50 balance. My forever car. Hope it lasts me another 10 years!
March 1, 2023I have owned 2 of these. A really fun car to drive, handles really nice and good power. They are becoming harder to find, especially with a manual transmission.
March 7, 2022All the fun of this car makes up for any little shortcomings that it has, easily remedied if wanted
