Pretty good review...
It seems the US reviews are a bit more positive than the UK reviews. A lot of the UK reviews state that they don't know where this car fits in; and I get it. They have a lot more wagons to choose from. Us Yanks don't.
And while the new F series is a great performer, a lot of journalist feel that the E90 platform was the best.
Look, if BMW brought of the 1 Series hatch, I'd be all over it. In fact, I've been waiting for a long time. It's not going to happen because our market doesn't demand or justify such a car.
I think journalist are comparing the wrong car to be honest. It shouldn't be compared to the X series; the X1 should be compared to the new 3-wagon. That will be interesting to see.
