My Take: No lease support for July, again. I saw a 135i coupe last night and I must say, that thing is SMALL! Two adults looked like sardines in there, while the backseat is nonexistent. It’s also not very attractive if you ask me. The 3-Series presents a better lease value at the moment; more room, better looks, less cash.
