BMW X1, guy or girl???

Kool-Kat · 10-03-2012, 12:29 AM

Very simple poll question

I think the X1 is a guys car?

I think the X1 is a girls car?

My intention is not to start a debate, just to get an opinion.

Personally I think it's just as unisex as any other BMW, (except the new X3, which is too pretty for me...no offense) but I couldn't help notice a lot of these X1's being bought for deserving wives

I think it's a cool car for guys too, especially all sported up!
What are your thoughts?

BEAMERBOI · 10-03-2012, 02:36 AM

You should add 28i or 35I as a 35I is defiantly a guys car!

Ha! Absolutely, 35i FTW!!

Red Bread · 10-03-2012, 04:41 PM

My wife would disagree about the 35i.

Everyone I've talked to said the X1 is for girls and I shouldn't get one. This pressure is making me reconsider X1...but each time I configure it...it looks so sexy..not girly at all...I'm guessing it really depends on package you get....Sport Package at the very least will make it less girly.

I got the something but...eh, definitely a car I'm not afraid of losing my masculinity with, poll helps assure that, but still sexy for the ladies

Do you care what other people say?

MikeRR · 10-05-2012, 02:28 AM

I think it is really an unisex car, in my case it will be the wifes car, but without a doubt I will take it far more often than her old car.

Sometimes. But when truth is infront of me I can't deny it. That truth being the X1 is sexy regardless of what people say or think.

Sebulba · 10-06-2012, 06:25 AM

Boys are looking at the car...
Girls are looking at the driver (me)...
And I read the same word on their lips: "Wow!!" :-D

Jacks money · 10-07-2012, 05:18 AM

I thought it was a girls car till I drove it.
with the half power steering you need to think its set up to be a boys car

WilliCO · 10-07-2012, 05:29 AM

To my eyes, the X1 looks more masculine than the X3.

It has something to do with the length of the hood (no implication meant). The X3 looks snubby to me.

DarrenBM · 10-07-2012, 03:57 PM

Who cares?
I think the X1 looks fairly sporty and kinda rugged.
It's also well suited to middle class young moms.
I bought the X1 as it fits my needs and don't care what others think although I haven't heard anyone say anything girly about it. It has a wide appeal though.

What are your thoughts?

The x1 is an x5 with panties.

(Just kidding.). The x1 makes a great car for a boy or a girl.

Humble_Bear · 10-07-2012, 11:56 PM

The color has a lot to do also. The orange and red look girly.

I agree with you Beamer, I'da gotten orange if the interior choices were a little more selective

edx1 · 10-10-2012, 01:54 PM

My wife wants the Midnight Blue color, that definetely won't happen because it is a girl color in my view.
