Well it's certainly higher, because of those European pedestrian safety laws, which brings up the front of the car and thus brings up the rest of the car. But it's very obviously shorter than the E46.

Great comparison. It definately puts the car into perspective in terms of size.

It further gives proof that the 1-Series will take away sales from the 3-Series...

Looks good, bigger than I thought.

and the C, IS, G... and many more .

Didnt change my perception at all. Still looks tiny to me. However its ugliness has increased since being parked next to that 3-series.

E46 FTW for me

I keep thinking about the old Tercel when I see this car! Not too bad looking, just a bit to short and tall for my tastes

Same here, that's not to say I don't like the newer one, I just prefer the look of the e46

My thoughts exactly!

Yep it's very ugly like the elephant man next to that E46

Faymester

add me to that list ... prefer e46, would be ok w. 1-series

The 1 series is not good looking and putting it next the the E46 is like putting Barbara Bush next to Halle Berry.

I'm an E46 owner and I would say I like the front end better on the 1 series, the back is either way for me between the two, but the side profile still goes to the E46. It isn't a really fair comparison though since the E46 does have the MTech II kit on it which most E46's on the road don't have.
