1 series Coupe

The 1 series Coupe have just been showed to the dealers. It was a 135i Coupe. It will be badged 1 series.

Would you care to share with us a little more information?

I had been informed of this also, by a VERY credible source. It was all I could do to not blab about it weeks ago as I didn't want to get him or myself in trouble. Still, this is all I want to say on here for now. Anyway, I'll not be referring to the car as a 2 series from here on in. A bit disappointing to me as I really wanted my license plate to read "2 TONIC". Doesn't really matter what they call it, at least it's getting close!

This is potentially VERY big news. Can you elaborate?

I doubt the coupe would be shown to dealers this early? maybee he meant the 3-door ? ANy further info if this is actually the coupe or just the 3door variant ?

spudw · 03-06-2007, 09:32 AM

Jacob, could you please specify if this is the 2-door coupe or the 3-door hatch? It seems it would be very early for the 2-door to be shown to dealers. Doesn't sound like reliable information, to me.

and the grande question: IS BMW detuning the engine for 1 series?
Let's hope not..

Well if they are, then there will be plenty of tuners out there that will be happy to bring it to 335i levels reliably. Hell Vishnu retuned the 335i to 375hp reliably.(they clocked over 15,000miles thus far and counting)
