    Not going to lie, I'm pretty impressed it's RWD. That alone redeems it a bit in my eyes.

    Still pretty gay though.

      RWD=good, Styling=not so good, they should make it more aerodynamic. I'd like to see the drag coefficient numbers, makes a big difference in the mpg race.

                Modern BMW's are as boring and predictable as the people who lease them.

                  Yeah! BMW bares no responsability for the making a ugly car. All those god damn hippie yuppies forced BMW to make an ugly car. Good point.

                    Since everyone on an e30 site is obviously in the market to rush out and buy one and BMW totally designed it to satisfy drivers of 25 year old cult cars.

                      Totally, bro. BMW's got its finger on the pulse of blind people want to drive.

                            No one on this forum fits the intended demographic for this car.

                            If you are enthusiastic about cars, you will be excited about the i3. From a materials, engineering, and packaging standpoint, it is a great look at the future of cars, and not just electrics.

                            BMW knows what it is doing. I can't wait to see the i8.

                              I like how they did it, not necessarily what they did, but it's cool in it's own way.

                              I do want to drive one....kinda the same curiosity I had with Fiat 500s.

                                Where exactly is "Berkley"? Why don't you point it out on a map for the rest of us.

                                Absolutely. If you can read anything past row 3 of this chart, you do not fit the demographic for this car.

                                Careful, I don't think you have the ocular fortitude for that activity.
