Its very simple ladies and gentlemen. Go to Mexico and buy a 130i and drive it into the US. Boddaboom boddabing.

Yea, for the low low price of 50-ish thousand dollars. Go buy an m3 instead.

Actually a 130i M-sport with 256hp is only 44,000

ONLY 44,000 You say that like its cheap for that car!!!

Holy shit, i could buy a fairly loaded out 335i coupe for that.

If the 1 series does come to the US, it better have just as much horsepower as the 335 and it better not cost as much, otherwise, they might as well not even bring it in.

Why would anyone buy a 1 when they can get the 3 for the same money???

is it really that easy? USA tends to makes getting a car from another country a pain no matter what

Well for some poeple in this forums 44,000 is not much. I am 18 I have like 1000. I have a 1989 E30 325i, and I lose in two months to my brother when I go away to college. If I had 44,000 I would hella buy used, always buy used. I would probably get like 2006 Pontiac GTO, maybe a CTS-V, S4 , Lotus Exige, Jaguar XJR, BMW M5(not the new version), Acura NSX, Caddy SRX, or a BMW 335i. Not a 130 M-sport, I am just pointing out that its a possibility.

I am not saying 44,000 is too much, I own cars worth alot more than that.

Its just that 44,000 is ALOT for THIS car.

I mean, come on...anything over 35k for a 1 series is ridiculous (excluding ///M series)
