Again, your ignorance and idiocy can’t figure out that anyone in a position forced to embellish their product, no matter how bad it may be, will quit his job before he tells the truth. Are you that dense? Then go back and read my previous posts as I’ve made it abundantly clear. He is a salesman. And that is one dorky looking goofmobile. And you like sex with llamas. And you’re dumber than a monkey.

A salesman is a guy at the dealer who is ready to tell you anything to make a few bucks comission off the sale of a car. Rick Brekus is an executive with BMW of NA…that’s a top level salaried postion that pays hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. I would expect you to have the issue confused, you’ve got everything else confused, and I don’t expect that to change because you can’t fix stupid.

Then you may want to convey that notion to that salesman, Rich Brekus.

The 1 series is a real 3 series, and the current 3 series is not.

HA HA HAAAAA, you still haven’t learned that you see the world through translucent vision, I see it clear as day. This car is OBJECTIVELY goofy looking. NOBODY has EVER stated the Veyron is goofy looking … hmmmmm, maybe their is a universal set of features that contribute to something being attractive and something else being unattractive. Sorry about your poor taste and inability to understand REALITY. And that is all FACT.

Haha, Impulsive still hasn’t learned that randomly inserting the word “objective” in before his opinion doesn’t make it a fact.

It’s a damn shame this is “The purest BMW we have”. BMW needs to go back to the great cars of the 80’s… When the 3 series was way under 3000lbs, the 5 series was barely over 3000lbs, and even the 7 series was less than 4000lbs.

“The purest BMW we have” … weighs nearly the same as as a 3, is technically no faster than a 3, with driving characteristics no better than a 3 … but looks WORSE than a 3 which, by the way, is not a good thing.

The true ignorance here isn’t what SEEMS to you, ‘Madcapp’, as black & white proof … rather, your bias towards the brand and what some salesman is helping you believe. Did you expect him to admit that he also thinks it looks retarded? He’ll admit that as soon as all insiders admit that your money is not safe in their hedge fund immediately before it blows up … ain’t gonna happen.

As an enthusiast, I repeat … I don’t care if this is faster than a Veyron, OBJECTIVELY it looks like a dorky goofmobile. Sorry I’ve insulted you and have necessitated your defensive remarks but I understand, it’s all right … everyone is allowed to love what they love … even if it is having sex with a llama.

I love the 1 series, but I don’t love faux-M packages that are basically rice.

I thought this was an automotive enthuiast forum, however it appears to be sprinked with fools that can’t stop from demonstrating their ignorance in black and white. So here’s your refresher about what the 1 series represents…

“The 1 series,” Rich Brekus, general manager of product planning and strategy at BMW of North America told AN’s Rick Kranz, “is the purest BMW we have.”

If you scoff at the 1 series, you fundamentally misunderstand what the BMW brand is. It really is just that simple.

there are many cars that do not photo well but look very good in person, that is my point.

‘autonut’, BINGO!

I don’t care if this retarded looking goofmobile is faster than a Veyron … ‘Madcapp’, good sex with a llama doesn’t work … well, maybe for you it does.

Madcapp, the chick who won NY marathon is NOT beautiful, outright dorky looking, but runs much faster then I can. Looks have nothing to do with performance. The chick maybe the best lay in the Universe, but if she looks dorky will you attempt to mount her?

Dorky? How can you tell…as it flashes to 60 in 4.some odd seconds?

I think series 1 picked a lot of design cues from Z4, which extremely ugly car replacing very attractive Z3. I believe it is creation of new design chief at BMW(forgot his name), who jumped off from Ford. I think he is one of those less talented left handed guys: Michaelangelo he ain’t.

Looks dorky.

More importantly, ‘page 2′ now works on LLN … yeeehaaaaaw.

Well, I think that’s a farse RC. I don’t have to see an A5 in person to think it to be beautiful, or an Aztek to know it to be ugly. There is no misticism in my perception. The 1 series is not ugly by any means, but it is awkward and the headlights are ill-proportioned in my opinion.

Not yet – they are coming though within 2 years. BMW already announced this, at least for the 3 and 5-series.

I’d rather have a true M1.

A BMW appearance package shouldn’t be called “M”, it deludes the meaning of it.
