2008 135i coupe with 72k for around $15k

This car will be my spirited drive car, possible track car, and occasional daily when the wife and kids need the other car. I'd say no more than 7500/yr on the car. I can pay cash today for the 135i and I would have to finance 8-10k for the M235i. If I go 135i there will be immediate moded for more fun and the M235i will probably remain stock for at least the first year before I mod it.

Those that have driven one or both help guide me in the right direction. Which is the better "fun" car that would also be good as a daily if needed?

Thanks!
is e9x an option?

1 and 2 non m have limited/narrow wheel wells and weird wheel offsets. e9x is a great platform to mod and have a dual purpose car fun/dd and also have hydraulic steering. You will need to mod suspension and add lsd for big power.
