Default BMW 1 Series Coupe

I couldn't stand the clear headlights of the 1 series, I am glad that they fixed it.

It is not difficult to foresee that this car will sell like hotcakes.

It looks like a Toyota Tercel, only more bulging.

Hmm, I'm assuming that model didn't have any type of sport package on it. I've seen different test mules with bigger wheels and a lower stance that looked better.

that looks pretty good. C&D says the 135i will weight about 300lbs less than the 335i and predicted to be capable of 0-60 in 4.5secs with a base price of $35K!! if the rest of the car and the interior is not hideous, i think i found my new daily driver...

Kind of odd-looking. If it's really that much car for $30-35k, then I may be a customer as well.

It really is an ugly-looking car. I hate the racoon eyes.

If I wanted a sub 0-60 second sedan, I'd buy a Legacy GT 2.5 and put a Cobb chip and STI turbo in it. More car, better performance, and still thousands less, but thats just me. If I wanted a badge, I still think I'd take the A3 quattro over it.

I do not like it. Is there going to be a hatch?

I like it but I was hoping for the 4 door hatch like they sell in Europe. They look good in person.
