I can blame them for not bringing the hatchback in the first place... or the previous gen or the gen after this as they have already stated we most likely won't be getting the next 1-series, only the newly named 2-series.

I can also blame them for bastardizing the F31 by only giving us an Xi auto option. I passed up ordering the E91 to wait for the F31 only to find this all out too late.

There is zero logic in their decision making. Right now I can order a RWD (S-drive) version of the X1, but can't do so for the 3-series Touring.
