Exclamation

Judging from the comment made at the end of the 1 Coupe video at http://bmw-web.tv/ the US debut will be at the Detriot Auto Show and not The L.A. Auto show as suspected.


Dates for NAIAS (North American International Auto Show) 2008 have been announced.

Press Preview will be Sunday, January 13 - Tuesday, January 15, 2008

Industry Preview will be Wednesday, January 16 & Thursday, January 17, 2008

Charity Preview will be Friday, January 18, 2008

Public Show will be Saturday, January 19 - Sunday , January 27, 2008

Two things

-They referred to the 1 series coupe as the "Entry" level BMW, and I know the CEO or someone important did not reffer to this car as the entry level. Does this mean maybe a drop in suspected pricing?
-Just because they said that they would see eachother at the NAIAS, doesn't mean it will debut there!

As I stated in my reply to your post in the general forum:

The german gentleman being interviewed is the Project Mgr. for the 1-Series, I am certain he knows far more regarding the 1-Series than the Company CEO.

BMW-webtv is fairly new and it is BMWs way to attract younger buyers via the web. If the car was going to debut in L.A. there would have been some mention of it. Also, with the 1er coupe coming to the US in the Spring of '08, November maybe too early to debut it. When the E90 was debuted at the NY Auto show (April) it launched shortly after (May).

he called it entry-level because it will be the entry-level BMW...just like how right now the 3-series is the entry-level BMW...but that doesn't automatically mean it'll be "cheap"
