As usual, it's not available in the U.S. The ROW gets the good stuff and the U.S. market gets the crap. A 1-series with the hatch maybe I'd be interested in - but again not for anywhere near $70k. Maybe for half that. Maybe. But I still doubt it.

Honestly I'm not a BMW guy anyway. Probably comes from living in SoCal for so long. M3s out that way are the vehicle of choice for self-righteous douchebags who really don't have money but want everyone to think they do - they're like sphincters - every butthole has one. Overly complicated overpriced junk that's only a pile of maintenance headaches for down the road also - IMHO of course.
