Boilermaker1 is a splendid one to behold

BMW 1 Series!

Who else has seen these little gems? They're due out for 2004 and are going to be available with a bunch of options. Body styles of Sedan, Coupe, Cabrio, and Hatch, with a variety of 4 bangers and will basically parallel the VW line. Prices are going to run somewhere from 19 to 27 G's and start with a 115 HP base engine with a SMT tranny, and go all the way up to 220 HP 2.0L TURBO! And wait until Dinan gets their hands on this (Dinan BMW = Mugen Honda). Which also means Audi may have to bring the A3/S3 over here... Ahhh let the fun begin.
But if you think about it, these are also going to be perfect for swaps... People will be trying to stuff M-spec I-6's (if someone got the M5 V8 into an M coupe, anything's possible) and in these and have some mean little cars. I can't wait....

It should look MUCH better than in those pics though (one can hope). Those are all old.

I hope it doesn't look like the last pic. That looks so tiny! Looks like a European car.

the bottom picture is uglyyy

sort of reminds of the Mercedes C Coupe/Hatch whatever it is

Well yeah, but let me elaborate. Looks like a Fiat, or an Opel, or a Peugot. Well, then again. Even these car companies have decent cars. It looks like what the standard is in Europe on car size. There, happy?
