Saw the 1 series in person - not impressed

Silicon Valley car show opened today so I went and spent 2 hours at lunch time. There was an orange 128 inside a roped-off area. I have to say I did not like the look of it. Fat and truncated to me. I am not impressed at all. My previous plan to get one went bye bye...

The other cars of note were
Nissan GT-R - nice
Lexus is-F - sux
R8 - not THAT great
EVO MR - small, OK looking
WRX STi - borderline fudgly
Bullit - waste of money


No showing from Porsche.
How can Infiniti keep saying they compete with BMW? I spent a long time in a G37S and found the interior absolutely tasteless. What is up with the pimp purple backlit instrumentation?

Only thing I like was the GT-R.
