The One

[JDS]

Is anybody else as enthused as I am about the new BMW 1 Series, particularly the 135i?

And is anybody else curious as to whether they will release an AWD 135xi? Or the 3-door version that those damn lucky Europeans get?

And am I the only one who just signed up for a friendly phone call from the local dealership when test drives are available?



WHEEEEE!

Should be a good drive, but, kinda ugly.

The pricing on this thing is going to make or break it. If they can keep the 135i below $30,000 base... they'll do well. But if they have it like $34+ forget it.

The current 335i is great, but also just a bit too expensive.

ummmm, just looking at the thing id pay the extra and take a bigger bulkier 335 coupe, heck a 328 is fine, I just dont like the looks of this thing........ im not a huge fan of hatchbacks, regardless of who makes it, so that being said the 3 door version is out the door for me as well


either way, I personally would rather have the Lexus than the BMW

says the guy about his own car, I mean any sane person is gonna like the look of their car, regardless of what others think. its just in their nature.... unless they know hteyre driving around in a broke-a$$ rusted over ghetto-mobile........ even then they might try to turn it into a fashion statement :?

Kinda? I think it is horribly ugly. I think the car looks like it is missing a chromosome.

The 190 will be the one to look at. 6 piston calipers and the M3 suspension. If they have a AWD version I may have to turn "crout". Then both my grandad and my dad will sumultaneously turn over in they're respective graves.
