You must be a current 1 series owner.

yep you are

all joking aside, no one knows exactly how the rear of the 2 series looks like.
don't get me wrong, i love the current 1 series that you have but this 2 is shaping up to be a nice pure BMW. and you should note that it should be a few lbs lighter than the 1.
Oh I'm not saying I'm not bias by any means. My point is that it's so similar to the 1 series I don't see any reason to sell my 1 and buy a 2. I like the look of the 1 better and I feel that it is much more "pure" because it has hydraulic power steering rather than electric along with the more desirable n54 from a tuning perspective.
