its hard to not like this car
Mark R

Agreed. It’s probably the only car that could pry me away from my beloved MINI. (At least, one that’s in my price range)
Jon

Styling wise I like this car much better than the 3 or 5 series. Still not what I would call a attractive design, I would call a purposeful design. I still believe the Z4 M coupe is still light years ahead of this car for design, although you can see a family resemblance between them.

What happened to the clip?
Jon

Pakistan felt the need to block youtube and the way they choose to do this affected pretty much world wide access for about 2 hours.

Hooydonk! I love that name. Anyway… It honestly doesn’t remind me of the 2002. Maybe its the flame surfacing. Last time I checked the 2002 didn’t have flame surfacing. I Really don’t like the direction BMWs heading. Bangles and H’Donk have to go.

excellent vehicle – would like to test drive it

About BimmerFile

BimmerFile is dedicated to bringing you the most interesting news, links and reviews related to the BMW brand and it's vehicles.

We believe in the old school BMW ownership experience. We believe in garage nights with a six pack and some friends. We believe in 2002s, in E30 M3s and E34 540s with the 6 speed. We believe in progress in both design and engineering but we haven't lost sight of what made the brand and its products great all those years ago. And yes, we believe in the manual transmission.

We long for the days of the wave and for the days of roll-up windows. Yet we love the gadgets on the inside and the xenons on the outside.

In short, we can't get enough of BMWs. This is BimmerFile.
