I think this generation is a giant step forward in styling and interior. The last one had excellent engine choices and drove like a car but it looked horrible and the interior did not match it's price tag.
I expect BMW to sell a bunch of these. I'd like to see a comparo between this and the X3 to see if the added expense is worth upgrading to the bigger vehicle.
Completely agree, the previous X1 looks way less upscale than this. Probably not the correct word...it's not like this one looks expensivee and the old one looked cheap....it was just....less grown-up?
Not sure if I'd buy one, just because I can't see spending that much $$$ when I replace my 3er, but I think this appeals to me more than an X3.
