Looks good from all angles.

BimmerMat135 · 01-15-2018, 01:38 PM

A nice smaller and more expensive X1 just what the world need!

Teufel_Hunden · 01-15-2018, 01:40 PM

Really like the look and flow of the front interior.

FCBayernFTW · 01-15-2018, 01:45 PM

Kinda wish I waited for this. I LOVE the roundels on the C pillar.

The most horrible gearbox lever!!

YeaG30 · 01-15-2018, 02:01 PM

I hope the first several posts are trolls.

This BMW is the result of the marketing team working on the design when the regular engineers were on extended holiday.

The funnet thing about that shifter, is that the LCI 2'er AT and GT is both dumping that exact shifter to a decent looking electric shifter, coming in two months time. So actually a new model is using the pre LCI parts, i find that really sad! The interiour Looks exactly like a F48, not impressed with this model!

It looks just fine for its class, anybody still complaining is just a negative Nancy.

hi_officer · 01-15-2018, 02:08 PM

This is a Sh*thole car.

MSCD · 01-15-2018, 02:11 PM

Seems ok. I still don't know how much different this is that a euro 5 door 1 series jacked up on higher springs and plastic mouldings? Much better than the 2 series active tourer

cc3 · 01-15-2018, 02:16 PM

Hyundai Kia Nissan Mazda could be any of these only a BMW due to the grill. Concept was better

Anthony3DHeli · 01-15-2018, 02:18 PM

Not exactly what we enthusiasts love, but it's going to sell a lot anyway...

M3 Adjuster · 01-15-2018, 02:42 PM

BMW often introduces models with lots of grey plastic on the exterior. Fortunately as costs drop over productions they generally make these grey plastic items body color , which makes them much better looking.

Remember the early E36 3 series ?

I have an E82 X1 in M SPORT guise because I absolutely love the vehicle in the same body color without any gray plastic.

Agreed. Not sure I understand why BMW needs 6 or 7 SUVs...they simply aren't individually unique or self identifying to distinguish themselves from one another and the rest of the market.

I just buy my vehicles in Mineral Grey. Problem solved.

That's one ugly pot of mustard!

professor_yo · 01-15-2018, 03:42 PM

Yawn

kevinlevrone · 01-15-2018, 03:59 PM

Looks good, except for the headlights and taillights. BMW has a real issue with headlight design lately. They just mess it up all the time. It's like they want to imitate Chris Bangle and end up with bad copycats all the time.
