A 1 series coupe!! Lol!

Looks strange like that, we have the hatchback one! and i personally hate it

Edit: And yea, i'd assume its cheaper than the 3 series. probably not by much though for the coupe.

If 35k for the 135i comes a reality, that would be one fast/comfortable little ah heck

I doubt they'd put a 3.5 in there.. the 1 series here has a 3.0, can't see it going higher than that.

Why do those pics of the rear end of the car look photo-chopped?

Anyway, the end is oogly, and I'd much rather have a 335ci :p

I don't know if it means anything but I noticed that the pic timed at 16:01 is a different set of rims than the rest of the pics

No, it appears that the front rims are different than the rear rims for some reason. Look at pic #1.

Also, I do not think the rear is a photochop job, it looks like the car has tape on the back.

135i = 3.0 twin turbo (like the 335i)
... and they're making the 135i, confirmed several times.

When I saw the first picture I almost thought that it might be possible for BMW to once again roll out a good looking car...then I saw the rear end.....BMW does it once again.... :disgust:

:laugh:

It's horrible from the rear, looks like a VW saloon. How did they manage to make it look worse than the hatchback?! :confused:

god that rear looks like a geo metro 3 cylinder. well, it would if that ridiculous mock-up trunk lid wasn't on it. i guess BMW doesn't want to show the world how badly they've bangled the taillights.
