This M235i is gorgeous IMO, and yet I still love the looks of the 1er's it is essentially replacing, there are 2-3 1er's in my neck of the woods. My car is 11 years old and I still get compliments on it, and people STARE at it. In 11 years people will only be staring at Korean, MB and old Porsche SUV's because they will be laughing at their dated, tired and out of place designs.

Agree. And I can't fathom how ANYONE could think the new Lexus styling is good. It's about as tasteless and overwrought as it gets.
