 Saw The 128i Today
I went to a BMW dealership in Milwaukee to pick up a new alternator/water pump belt, a new A/C belt, and a couple of oil filters for my '95 ti. After getting the parts I was browsing the BMW showroom and saw the new M3 in black, just incredible! I love it, and black is my favorite on BMW's, and most any German car. Well, I was curious about the new 1 series and asked the saleswoman if they had any, she said there was one out on a test drive. I waited a few minutes and the 1 series had come back. It was a bronze 128i. I did not like the looks at all. I had seriously considered buying a 1 from it's performance specs, but after seeing it I know at this point I really don't like it at all, the curved line going through the side of the car is more pronounced in person. The car probably would look much better in black, but that's my taste. I really didn't like the looks of the front end or the shape of those headlights either. I don't think the looks of this one will grow on me either. I'll have to see one in black before I make my final judgment, but I am not excited about this car anymore. |
