I may have a biased view, but I actually like the look of the 1 series better...

Small, RWD, turbo, 6 speed manual?! And no headlights connected to the kidneys either?
Thank you BMW!
The mirrors are copying Audi though.

Can't say I'm a fan. The 1-Series has become in my mind, one of those timeless and uniquely original cars that simply can't be replaced.

I like this better than both the 1 and the 3 series coupe. IIRC BMW said they wanted to make a car closer to the roots of the early 3 series not the bloated version it is these days.

Wish it had a sweet NA I6 powerplant rather than crappy forced-induction.

My last car was a 135i and I felt that the engine was the worst part of the entire package

^whys that? The n54, despite the hpfp issues, should be a pretty potent engine. Last time I drove one, felt quite smooth. Why didn't you like it?

Stock the motor was just uber-boring
I leased the car because I loved the look and I wanted to know what owning a new BMW was like. The car couldn't chirp the tires into second after a few months of owning it and everything about the car was pretty numb. The e-diff sucks.
Having said that, I loved the interior, seats, stereo, brakes, looks, handling, and ride.
Worst parts were the engine and a close second, the diff.
The stock N54 has no top end either, the power dies right at 5500 RPM.

Also I wonder when they are going to release the gran coupe, touring, minivan convertible, convertible 4 door, hatchback, convertible coupe, and GT hatchback crossover version of it.
