Kinda reminds me of a Renault... Fugly anyhow! Thank God BMW made them fun to drive, otherwise they wouldn't sell any.

I'm not sure what to think of those.

I like it. They will be fun cars to modify.

i think it shares similar lines to the alfa 147 (hottest hatchback evar.)

its nice that bmw tried to make a new car thats actually a compact sport sedan, but at over 3,100 lbs, its still a porker in my book. It really must be impossible to build a car that meets their safety standards and remain lightweight/sporty.

Furthermore, I don't see a real comparison between it and the 2002 when the one series weighs half a ton more.

I think I actually like the 4 door better.

I think I actually like the 4 door better.

Sounds like your 4 door is growing on you ;)

[Digitalwave]

It really depends on the car. I don't like E30 or E46 (unless its a ZHP) 4 doors, and I still like E36 coupes better, but I like E36 sedans (obviously).

[BimmerToad]

I agree w/ you on the 1 series. The addition of two more doors seems to lengthen the stubby rear and make the overall car look more proportional.

They better have an M style front end on the 135i model.

[Jean]

Ok now this is better than the 4door hb... but still front end or headlights are just goofy looking imho.

[mrsleeve]

kinda fugly but I would still rock a tt version.

I always thought they looked pretty badass. 3100lbs may be heavy compared to an E30 or a 2002 but I doubt you'd notice with a twin turbo 3.0L under the hood..

It looks like a Chris Bangle-ized VW Rabbit.
