Bangle is the reason for the future 1. So bringing him back would just make it worse.

The germans have been drinking some wild vodka, lately these designs although innovative and i'm sure much more aerodynamic and economic have put me off with the exception of the 1m. I find the rest look like garbage but hey, it just makes me appreciate how f*ckin good looking the e36 models are. Anyone know whose stepping in for bangle?

The new Roundel says BMW NA is considering bringing the 5 door 1 Series to the US. I'll believe when I see it.

Adrian van Hooydonk, since last year. Worked closely with Bangle, though, hence the fact the changes haven't been too radical.

Looks a little like Z3 coupe to me. Apparently, a German designer at BMW likes the old British Scimitar GTE so he decided to do something similar. As you can see, the project went horribly wrong for both designs. Now BMW, too, has a ridiculous car that few true BMW enthusiasts will buy. Horrible looking *two thumbs down*.

Looks terrible. I'd call it the BMW Outback.

Default Future 1 Series should be left covered!

Unimpressed.

When I first looked at the front end it sort of look like a Chrysler PT Cruiser to me.

The cars that I really like are just not being made anymore, and sadly, like me they are all just getting older and rustier every year.
