Oh by no means am I calling the 2 ugly, it's a great looking car and I'm jealous of all of you who have one.

It may just take me some time to warm up to it. I remember seeing the 1 series back in 2008 and thinking to myself what a perfect sized RWD BMW too bad its so ugly. Now I love the looks of the 1 thus I'm looking to purchase one.

That's usually what's so great about some European(BMW, Audi, MB) designs is they grow on you and still look great after 10 and sometimes 15 years. I still love the B5 A4, e46 3 series, and some older Benzs.

Congrats on your ride great choice!
