Let us get one thing clear. There is no face-lift happening before the car goes on sale. BMW have never rushed through a quick facelift just because a select group of people do not like the original car.

I agree with SCOTT26. There are only small amounts of people who will not like every redesign. I actually like the new 1-series styling and hope that more BMW's adapt to it in the future. Sure they could make the headlights a little smaller on the outside, but at least this doesn't look like same sausage different length car like everyone complains with the 5 to the 7-series.

Never rushed through a quick facelift? Bring a visit to the BMW archives and find out how long it took before the first 3 Series (E21) had its first facelift.

More than a select group of people do not like the car. This is the only BMW that several news organizations felt was a prank upon being leaked.

I even felt it was a render by a ultra low budget german tuning magazine, and I've worked enineering production cars.

Example of reception comments:

Quote:
I am really hoping right now that this is some kind of a joke. I cannot believe that this is the best BMW can come up with. Very disappointing!
Quote:
I thought the photo was a photochopped joke!
The stylist grabbed its face and stretched it apart.
That is some massive negative space between the grill and the headlamps.
Quote:
Turns out the photo leaked early was not a joke. There is going to be a lot of controversy over this design, that is for sure.
Quote:
so this is most likely not another April Fools joke

If you actually read the press , especially in Germany they all state that the car is much better looking in the metal. Selected European media have seen the car in a closed room viewing at BMW.

Hi,

I saw this car in flesh last Sunday in a closed room view here in Finland. Blew my mind away, itīs really AWESOME inside out!! Photos do not do justice at all to this car. BMW did it again, this will be a huge success. Allready 1,6liter turbo giving 7,4sec 0-100km/h, and thatīs just the 118i.. wonder if thereīs gonna be a 135i Canīt wait to order mine!
