the 130 is sweeet. handles superbly, fast and is very responsive. the 135 will be amazing. although the looks have been criticized heavily, it isn’t that bad i think its unique for those who want a bigger backseat/family car get a 3 series

I like look of the five door 1er. I hope they bring it to the US.
Even the 2.5 I6 would be plenty of power for me.
I just want a nice, practical commuter.
I love bmw’s I6, rwd, style and quality. There is nothing out there to compare, except maybe the A3 Quattro, which pushing 34k is out of my range. I really wish they would hurry up with the X1.

All of you Americans who do not like and enjoy BMW are idiots! Or maybe I should say; jealous idiots! Just because you in USA are not able to come up with ideas BMW-like! Drive in your ugly pickup’s!

I’ve read your comments about this car being not well designed nor ‘agressive’ looking. In Europe (at least in West), most people don’t want to show they have an expensive car, some people want to drive a 306hp car that looks exactly like a 116i or a 118 Diesel. The Audi S3, with 265hp and 350Nm looks almost like a A3 1.6L… Nobody will bother you in the US is you drive a V8 Mustang or a Corvette, but in Europe you may get in trouble… So this 135ti will definitly get its market segment…

An R36 Golf would be a nice weapon to own.

I think this thing will be a rocket!!!

the 335i got 4.8 0-60, so imagine this car!

the design comments are subjective though, i think it looks nice but not like the 3-series…

let’s wait for the R36 and RS3 ;)

Beign an R32 owner, id love to see this come stateside. I like it, I am not quite sure if i would give up my R32 for it, but i can’t say for sure.

BMW has enjoyed tremendous success with 1er in Europe. It’s a fashionable drivers car, nothing more nothing less. Want practicality? Get a VDub GTI. Which is a terrific car though.

I love 1er for its distinct “devil may care” looks. We’ll see how the coupe/sedan is going to look when it comes to US. Only thing is, with US dollar falling like a rock against Euro I wonder how it’ll affect BMW’s strategy.

I agree with you. They’re just camouflaging it, to make it look like a four door model. I’m sure it’ll be a capable car, but I’m not keen on its looks.

Ah, I thought the above comment was a joke.

So what, is that just while they’re designing it, or is the real version going to have fake handles on the back as well?

If indeed they are fake, then the car looks entirely too fucking long.

Ry: It is a two door. The rear handles/shutlines are fake.

Make it a two door hatch and maybe Americans would buy it, but that’s a big maybe.

By the way, having driven both the 1 series and the Golf/Rabbit, I must say the Golf is a better car to live with every day…
