The new 2 series

[E30 Wagen]

So what do we think of the new 2 series?



I like it.

What's up with all the even number models?

Looks ugly af IMO, the front end reminds me of a Pontiac.

I like it. It's like an f30 on weight loss pills.

I like the look, I like it a lot. It is a heck of a lot nicer than that ugly 1 series.

So is this thing gonna be RWD?? If so, I LIKE IT!

Is this taking the place of the 1 series? I think it is IIRC. Since they are going to even numbers are two doors, odd numbers are 4 doors.

If this is the case I bet it's RWD.

EDIT. Yes, its the replacement

they put 3 series headlights on a 1 series and called it a 2 series...how brilliant...

[nando]

it looks pretty good - basically, the 3 series is now the 2 series..

automatic = lame but the launch control was kinda cool.

I always thought the 1 series, aside from the M model, was pretty god awful looking. this looks much better.

States in the video RWD layout.

It does LOOK better than a 1 series. High belt line still looks awkward though...

It's a lot more interesting than anything else bmw has put out recently. Of course, it is dimensionally very similar to an e46 m3. So, uh, it ain't exactly small.

[nando]

compared to the land barges they're building now, it's pretty small.

I wonder if it has any of the lightweight tech from the newer models?

There is.

In order to make a proper assessment I need to see this thing sliding around corners and burnin rubber.

Can someone explain to me why BMW no longer use the E for chassis codes? I thought the E stood for Entwicklung (development), what the fuck does the F stand for. Did they just not want to use three digit number so they went to the next letter that means nothing?
