128i & 228i Comparison Picture

Though some would like to see this comparison picture since I had an opportunity to I took the shot.

Colors look very similar as well but the 2 series is a greener tint.

the 1 has that classic look to it which is nice in the long run but now it just looks couple generations older than the 2 series

Funny I kind of feel the same way. The bubbly and boxy body cars tend to look good in 10-20+ years like the e30 and even e46 M3 where as the newer cars do the sharp angles. When I try to imagine them in 20 years I kind feel like some of them will end up looking unattractive like an old pointy Camaro or the Fox Body Mustangs looks to me.

That 128i looks like one I've traded in for my 228i M-Sport picture here side-by-side.

I think the F22 looks like a slightly updated E90, which I still think is a good looking car. The only 3er that I think hasn't aged well is the LCI E46 with the up swept headlights. I never liked the soft, sweeping bottom of the outside bubble of the headlight. The E90 and F22 execute something similar but with much better execution.
