I can still remember when scott26 said some marketing lingo about how they were a nice feature
So nice, they were removed in the facelift

Lol I got banned for a long time by one of he mods for voicing my opinion about the pre lci in the 1 series forums. Apparently they actually like the design of the car and didn't like me.

The new one is an improvement, especially the headlights. But still, every time I look at the lci I still see the butt ugly pre lci headlights.

Bring the 120i, make a 128i and bring the m135i that would be an excellent golf fighter. But as usual we will get an X2 with a fwd platform instead...

pt9507 · 01-15-2015, 08:43 PM

The taillights are a bit........ hmmmmm.....

Vervain · 01-15-2015, 08:50 PM

Omg this is amazing! Great job bmw!

They made a mistake and used the old rotary idrive knob in the one interior shot..

Imola.ZHP · 01-15-2015, 08:56 PM

Love it, please bring it to the U.S.!!!

Personally I like the new lights, don't like the new front bumper and don't like the rear.

Nice comparison. What a difference!

Transfer · 01-15-2015, 08:59 PM

Yeah. This in M135i xDrive would be fantastic for me. Grrr! Bring it to USA BMW.

Teutonic · 01-15-2015, 09:12 PM

This one with AWD or in M with AWD and I will be all over it... Perfect car for sporty driving.

jbrucebmw · 01-15-2015, 09:21 PM

Looks great. Now if only it was headed to the U.S..

cncmastr · 01-15-2015, 09:24 PM

I'd totally get a five door hatchback if they sold that here.

BMWRL · 01-15-2015, 09:34 PM

Looks fantastic!

The taillights make the back end look wider and lower.

Very nice, I do agree that this would sell well in the US.

TheBingoBalls · 01-15-2015, 09:39 PM

Looks like the next-gen X1 takes some of its styling cues from the F2X 1er, if so it's going to be a great looking X1, an improvement over the current generation.

parabola · 01-15-2015, 09:40 PM

So why BMW doesn't sell this in US?

They claim no market for hatchbacks States side or small car in general ... I feel they are right somehow, for example look at sales number for X1 between Europe and States

It's not a mistake. You only get the new bigger knob if you get the professional drive. It doesn't come with Business nav or non-nav models. Only professional nav. We only get professional in the US or the non-nav iDrive, which does indeed have the smaller knob.

AtlantaDude · 01-15-2015, 10:05 PM

Much better!!! Those headlights are a hell of a lot more acceptable. Very nice.

.....what possible opinion could you have had that would have led to a ban?

Personally I love the look of this thing. If they had it here in the states I would get one for track purposes FOOORRRR SURRRREEEEE. Do you hear me BMW?

They said I was banned because I had nothing but negative things to say about the design. Nothing offensive to anyone or anyone's personal car. A lot of comments get deleted around here just because the mods don't have the same views.

DisonKlaud · 01-15-2015, 10:17 PM

looks amazing!

3M TAPE · 01-15-2015, 10:45 PM

I approve

AusF20/F48 · 01-15-2015, 11:30 PM

It is a good looking car, but I think they took a bit too much look from the X series of vehicles.
It looks a bit baby X1 now.
I would have preferred more influence from the 2er myself
