What BMW is under this camoflage?

Took these pictures in a Wendys parking lot (out of all places) in my small town here in PA. Sorry that theyre not good pictures....The mini is obviously a Clubman. I wonder what the BMW is under that camo.

Is that the euro 2-series or active or whatever they call it front wheel drive sedan?
Where in PA is that?
Great capture, should be on the home page of this site.

I'm not sure if it is, but it possibly could be considering it was with a Mini. Couldn't get a view of the front, otherwise I would have snapped a picture from there. I saw this in the Downingtown/Exton/Lionville area of Chester County, so I was really surprised because we usually NEVER see this kind of stuff around here!

All the former N55 engines (found on the 135i/235i/335i/435i/535i and .35i SAVs) will be upgraded to the all-new 3.0-liter inline six, called the B58, which smoothly delivers 320 horsepower and 330 pound-feet of torque

For comparison:

0 to 60 on the B58 340i is something like 4.5 secs with xDrive/Auto compared to the 5.1 secs on the out going the N55 335i xDrive/Auto.

Wow, the new B58 is a lot faster than the outgoing engine, almost half a second faster.
