Hi guys

another question,

2011 coupe or a f20 hatch?

why would I prefer to take either?

[both will have pretty much the same specs, m sport]

the main thing would be the practicability of them.

opinions?

ps, im single, no family, no dog, just the occasional girlfriend.

Hatch, new generation interior is a MASSIVE improvement!!

5 door obviously if you plan on having back seat passengers, the fold down seats and hatch layout do make it a bit more versatile as well (not sure if coupe seats fold?)

Engine dependent the new generation of engines in the hatch are also more efficient, and being turbo is a huge help if you live at the reef.

Bro trust me, F21 is what you need m-Sport.
I'm 6'1 89kg and still fit in the back as well.
New F20/21 interior is on par with f30, economical and great line of engines as well.
If you buy e82 1 coupe rem that shape will be getting replaced in 1yrs time by the 2 Series.

Depends what you want from the car.
As said, Interior is a vastly different place to be in the new car, so so so much better.

For me iv always liked the lines and look of a 2door
But the 2door hatch is also good looking :)

The rear seats on my e92 fold down :thumbs:

you guys dont make it easy with helping a guy who is torn between the two ey :)

i love the looks from the coupe,

but loved the interior of the f20 when i had one overseas - such a fun thing to drive.

as that would be my only vehicle i would like "some" packing space.

what counts against the current coupe is its interior, as its outdated in comparison to the f20.

guess i need to earn more money to own every bmw that i desire :cry:


cool feedback so far guys :thumbs:

the coupe looks better than the f20 hatch, but the engines in the f20 are better as well as the interior. My thoughts would be a f20 125i hatch with msport would be the best of all worlds.

how come you prefer the petrol above the diesel?

doesnt it cost you an arm and a leg to keep the thing moving?

I've been down this same road.

F20 Hatch or E82 Coupe :fencelook:
Both great looking cars but the Coupe is just so much sexier.

F20 though is more practical.
If you a tall person like myself having passengers in the back will be a tight squeeze.

Then again I always say are you buying a car for yourself for the passenger :thumbs:

what did you end up getting?

for me its the same thing, practicality [plus new design interior] vs sexyness...

:argh:

I'm currently in the market for a 120d coupe.
It's the balance of fuel economy and sexyness.
As much as I would like a 125i or even a 135i, my problem is that i drive a lot.
If i had a spare car or didn't do a much km's I would have jumped at getting a 135i.
