because marketting pictures are representative of what it will really look like in real life and are in no way enhancing its looks. My IS doesnt look anything like the brochure pictures, so what?

Those are the best pics I've seen of the 1-series BY FAR. I don't know, in the right color, it might actually look ok. Either way, with that twin turbo engine, it should be a blast to drive, and for a cheaper price than the 335i.

Too bad Acura just dropped the RSX...seems like the only real competitor for this car, and is far better looking IMO.

eh no? I had a RSX before but this 135i will most likely to blow away RSX, and many other in the same price range including my IS350, in terms of performance.
Look, of course, is subjective.
