bmw 1 series sedan idea - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

Haides · 02-21-2009, 05:38 PM

im thrilled by this idea,but seems like nobody talking about it so much,to say the true theres no topicat all(?)...
this is rough speedy photoshop but just imagine..
i would kill 4 it! the rear end is killer..
im sure theres gonna be a 1er sedan for next generation,too bad it didnt came out 4 this too...

Yoshii · 02-21-2009, 06:04 PM

that would look awsome...the bottom pic with the white one is bad ass...they should make a 1 series sedan...

...i would buy one.

I think what you're looking for is a re-styled 3er. I mean if the 3-series is BMW's compact sedan, then what category will this be in?

You got skills in photoshop my friend

spacedogg · 02-21-2009, 06:16 PM

Looks better than the coupe...

But even with extra door...realistically I wouldn't be able to lug friends around in those back seats...unless they were amputees.

Haides · 02-21-2009, 06:24 PM

well you have the point it would be a restyled 3er,but it could be shorter wheel base from 1hatch..actually less lenght..but still room for backseat..thnx N 4 U

Haides · 02-21-2009, 06:30 PM

either way the next generation of 3er will be longer,biger..so it would fit somewhere between...

like vw jetta comparator...

spacedogg · 02-21-2009, 06:36 PM

Yeah once the 1 Series is restyled, I will look at it as an option. Especially since I'm sure (by that time) the new 3 Series will be even bigger which would be too big for my tastes.

Currently I think it's cruel to have friends ride in the rear of the 1 Series...

rcracer_tx · 02-21-2009, 07:32 PM

I must say that is the ugliest thing I have ever seen.... If you want a big car get the 3 or 5 series.

MCMLXXXIX · 02-21-2009, 08:49 PM

shorten the front door and itll look better. coupes doors are longer. the white one looks the best but im sure its just cause of the angle

pmeloche · 02-21-2009, 09:06 PM

A 1 Series sedan does not make any sense IMO. The five-door hatchback is alright but no sedan, that's what the 3 Series and 5 Series are for.

Rawhide · 02-21-2009, 09:21 PM

First off, nice photoshop work.

I really hope the 1 resists the size creep that the 3 has experienced. As for the backseats on the 1, well I just treat mine as a two seater and consider the backseat for children and emergencies only.

Heh. You think the size creep is bad on the 3 series?

Check out the new Audi A4. Looks like an A6!!!

BillLee · 02-21-2009, 10:52 PM

eww i could never imagine a 4 door 1 series

Year1of1 · 02-22-2009, 05:31 PM

kill it kill it! that thing is ugly... if you want four doors, by a 3 series... who cares about the back seat ppl... tell them to drive their own cars if its too small...

the 1 is perfect the way it is... unless they want to put a v8 in it

dude every audi looks practically the same

As if the 3 series sedan had enough leg room... I can't see myself riding in a 1 series sedan without my knees stuck in the driver's back.

Spec 1 · 02-23-2009, 03:10 AM

I think the idea is great. In fact, now I almost NEED a compact 4dr Bimmer. Wait...

Seriously though, I love the compact 4 dr look. It looks better on the 1 than the coupe and I think the same on the E30s.

E90SLAM · 02-25-2009, 12:34 AM

I think watcha talking about is the previous 1 series...

G5Ti · 02-25-2009, 10:59 PM

Looks good, but kinda like a limo. The front door is too long right now; looks the same as the coupe's plus a rear door. If you can cut the front door down in length about 20-25% then I think this would be quite an attractive car, though I'm not sure about marketability.

Perhaps photoshop the door combo off a 5-door hatch?
