While I fully appreciate the need for a compact SUV, I really just don't understand the X2, simply because the X1 exists. I mean, have a look at these cars in the profile view:
Take away the labels and ask anyone who isn't a registered member on Bimmerpost (or a BMW employee) to say which is which, and they're likely to insist that they're all the same car in different trim levels!
The question is not, "Do you like the X2?" The question is, "Will buyers choose the X2 at a $5k price premium when the X1 exists?"
