Because they are letting Mini go soon, Mini will be breaking free to become their own company. And the Mini Cooper S starts at 23k where the 135i would be much more, they would be on two completely different levels. This is sweet, I cant wait!

I scarfed a 2007 120d 3 door, which gets 48.7 over 12,000 miles [not imperial ones], much quicker than the 98 318ti I passed to my wife [don't asked how I made this work], still getting used to all the power from idle up to 4,000 RPM, and it will lite up a set of 225-40 18 Run Flats and has hit the speed limiter at 247 KPH.

China!
I block certain keywords. Never thought I'd have to block Chinese.

Please guys, don't reply to spam. Report it and one of us will ban and delete.

Dudes, all I wanna say is with gas heading over $4/gallon for regular...BMW might want to think about importing the 4 bangers. I think a lot of people could appreciate 30+ mpg:

People think my ti is a 6-cyl all the time, as it's debadged. When I tell them it's really a 1.9L 4-cyl they go "Ohh..." dissapointedly. Recently however, I've followed this up with "But it DOES get 30mpg, and is still decently quick." They act like they just had an epiphany.

"30mpg...in a BMW?! Oohhh God! It's not possible! And still fun to drive?! Whhaatttt?!?!"

Someone asked me today where they can buy them. He thought my 97 was a newer model.

V8 ti = I need to start playing the mega-bucks so I can afford an M5 engine swap (not to mention the gas )

Anybody have updates on the 1 series hatch? The more I've been reading about them the more I want one, and I'm really not trying to have to import one from Europe...

If they actually come here I was thinking I could purchase one used when I'm out of university in 3 years for a decent price.

Well, as long as BMW owns Mini, I'd say the odds of us seeing the 1er hatch are nill. Even though it would probably be priced a bit higher, it would still eat into sales and I don't think they're willing to let that happen.

It's what BMW North America want to bring here, not BMW AG.
