The New 1 Series

[Yuvan]

Whats you guys take on the new 1series, not sure how to post a pic but have you guys seen it? I have no words to describe but it takes the eye some time to kinda get used to and i dont mean that i a good way.

Lemme know what you'll think.

Maybe it takes sometime getting used to, in my opinion the front looks awfull. The back looks kinda like the new Polo back??? Im holding my breathe 4 the new 3 series. Wonder what the designers are smoking there!!!:biglol:

Yeah, thats the thing, im trying to picture this car in a sporty pack, just not working, wonder how the designers at ///M are going to design the sports package/look...they have always seemed to WOW us in the past!!!

E87 (5dr)

VS

F20 (5dr)

Both black, both with M-Sport bodykits and larger wheels.

I much prefer the F20. Much sleeker lines, no botbelly sag under the doors, no droopy headlight, more sculpting, less bland flat panels, what's not to like? :=):

 

[Yuvan]

This 1 looks much better

@v1p3r - This pic just converted me, I guess all cars have that angle of excellent styling. This is by far the best angle I've seen for the F20!

 

[moranor@axis]

lol the F20 is a studio pic and the other is rubbish its not hard to make something look good with a camera...

 

[v1p3r]

Doesn't matter at what angle you look at it the F20 is a more cohesive design than the E87. The previous pics were to illustrate to Yuvan from roughly the same angle what an M-Sport 1er looks like .

Here are more M-Sport pics, not studio pics, just a normal guy with a decent camera at a promo event

Here are the pics from Frankfurt, all colours, all editions, all trims.

As with all BMW's the pictures never do the cars justice and seeing it in the flesh is the only way of really seeing if you like it or not. It already looks good in the pics to me, can't imagine how it looks in real life.

The same thing happens model release after model release, people post the "kots" smiley, and end up owning one in a year or so :rollsmile:

 

[moranor@axis]

they just made a complete mess of the front lights... if they did not do that it would have been a very good looking car...

 

[Karthik]

The F20 looks flippen awesome in that picture in black . :inlove: I like it now ,

 

[Josh-ZN]

I think the coupe M sport version might have potential. Dont care much for the hatch.

 

[Yuvan]

the ///M version looks nice, i still think BMW could improve the front abit, esp those lights

 

[moranor@axis]

i can see guys putting all sorts of crazy eyelids on to try fix the lights :rollsmile:

Maybe that will work as it will decrease the size of the light, the lights are just abit too big on the new 1.
