Since I don't know how the engine will be placed, I would like to know if these new models will have a rear biased xDrive. It will be a TRUE X-Drive or it will be a Haldex badged by the marketing team as an x-drive???? It is VERY Important for me and my future decisions. Thank you |

Looks more like a Volvo to me, but I am interested to see the final product. I would never purchase a FWD car though... so yeah. To each his own.

I love how people can predict character lines and determine what a car looks like when it is so heavily camo'd. All I see are swirls and non production head and taillamps.

Finally, we can get a M135i sedan (Hopefully somewhere down the road) that can compete with the Audi s3.

I simply could not settle for a FWD 1-series sedan. I would rather drive something like a focus or fiesta ST if I wanted FWD, and I think the X-drive would add too much weight. I want something that is a nice all rounder, can handle occasional track days and auto-X, and won't laughed at car meets (which obviously a very small percentage of the car buying public cares about) but is a competent daily driver.

loving my 228 more and more everyday. lots of sky is falling nonsense around here. I keep hearing people crying for a small RWD coupe. didn't the 228/235i come out less than a year ago? Jesus Christ guys, pick one up! what are you waiting for?
I'm shocked reading the A3 love on here. did anyone actually drive one? it was one of the most boring test drives of my life. had more fun with a rental Corolla days later. |

I'm surprised with the lack of knowledge of how some think front wheel drive is a drivers car. The only thing that these cars have in common is a BMW badge. The biggest laugh is Mini saying their front wheel drive it like a go-cart which is rear wheel drive and most Mini wouldn't even know this.

I remember the days when BMW led the pack
Now, it just sits around and copies other manufacturers. Why wait for this when someone can go get a GLI manual for cheaper then chip it if they want right now? |

See the 235i GC thread. There were some interesting renders in white that made me think I'd found the Successor to my E36 M3/4/5. The next wave of articles hinted that the project was killed, so I spent a little to update my car and keep it another 5-10 years.

I have no idea what this company is doing anymore besides printing money...and that will be short lived when everybody figures out that there's nothing to differentiate BMW from everybody else any longer.

I was thinking about the 1 series hatch. A hot hatch should be just as sporty as a coupe?
