    1 series coming to the US with a bang...

    Its going to have some traction issues, because its coming in 135i form.

    It's on! BMW 1-series coming to the U.S. in 135i guise - Autoblog
    http://www.autoblog.com/2007/01/17/its-on-bmw-1-series-coming-to-the-u-s-in-135i-guise/
    At what Winding Road described as a "corporate event this week," BMW officials have confirmed that the 1-series will be making its way to U.S. shores in 2008. The official announcement is expected later this year, which will finally put to rest the speculation we've been covering for far too long.

    '98 E36 M3 Estorilblau/Dove - SOLD
    '90 E30 M3 Brilliantrot/Black - SOLD

      saw this earlier today.. The 130i already holds it's own against a VW R32 so you can imagine..........!

        I don't like it in stock form, but I've seen several done by AC Schnitzer, Hartge and Hamann that made me very happy in pants.

              Lets hope that they come with a better clutch than the current 335i . :D

                      Yeah its rear wheel, i could never buy this car, i would much rather have the mcoupe, even though it isnt TTinline six, its still a much more appealing car, and the price tags will be close enough.

                        Isnt the M coupe like $50k??? For 30K, that mini-M coupe would be a bargain.

                          I dont think you understand just how small this thing is. The E30 is bigger inside.
                          Im now E30less.

                            Yeah, I would the 1 series, even with the TTinline-6 will be at least 10k cheaper then the Mcoupe

                              But it's really ugly.
                              I wonder if the motor will fit in an E30.:shock:
