Spy Shot: BMW 1 Series Coupe Caught In Testing

If you are a 1 series fan, then these thinly disguised shots of the almost production ready 1 series coupe should make your heart race.

While the profile of this new coupe looks really good, we wonder if the tail shots are indicative of the final design.

Either way this model will go a long way towards introducing a whole new generation to BMW away from the popular Japanese marques that dominate this sector.

The taillights appear to be something like the E92's.

That's a good looking ride, but it looks tiny to me. However, if they shoehorn in the 3 liter twin turbo engine, the thing will be a rocket. The first picture looks like it could have an intercooler visible behind the bumper. So who knows.

Very nice spy shots. These are actually USEFUL, and this may be the first 1 Series I like! Aggressive, modern, and very well-done.

This will be a very successful car..BMW will sell a bazillion of them if priced right. It will wipe the GTI off the map.

I doubt it. The 1 Series hatch is overpriced and underwhelming, which is why it does so poorly next to the GTI in comparos; I don't see why magazines would compare the coupe to it instead. I like this new coupe, but it's comments like that that annoy me.
