I'll be glad when my wifes lease expires next spring on her current car as she really likes this 1 series. The current 3 series is just too big for her tastes.

A quick attempt at comparing it to the current 3 series in size.

Looks like the only big difference(on paper) is the overall length (10") everything else is within 1-2"(or less

The steering wheel looks very simular to ours-which I love. 306 hp in a small coupe sounds like a very fun combination!

I still see no reason to NOT order one on the day that they are orderable

I'll take a 135i in Black with black leather and black interior trim please.

*Max wonders if he should order a set of flat-black wheels to go with the stealth theme yet.....

Neat looking car. Hard to say what it will really be like in person. Hopefully a little more swoopy. It could definitely be fast in the 3 liter engined version... back to what a BMW should be!

I agree. This car brings me back a bit to the older boxier designs and I love it!

What's with the news of BMW making a smaller than 1-series based on the mini platform? I hope they'll wait to see how well the 1-series does here in the states before doing anything like that
