I test drove a 335 manual trans (coupe), and really liked it. I ended up buying a 535, also a manual transmission. If you want a manual, don't compromise, just look around for one to test drive at other dealers and then special order it to get exactly what you want. It doesn't have to be a sedan to test; test a coupe with a stick and a sedan with an automatic if necessary.

I would skip the 135. It is less car for a similar price. Weight is comparable. If you want a 120d, great, but for the 35 go with a 3 (or a 5, which has essentially the same performance).
