Saw this just now. The new BMW 1-Series with M Body Kit - and appropriately parked directly behind it was its current rival - the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class AMG Line (and behind it the old F20 1er).

To be honest, I was rather underwhelmed by the design. Side and rear are so-so, but the front and those huge kidney grilles just look terrible. I am sorry, but I'm not a fan.

Looks like a Kia.

It doesn't look pretty. Rear is ok. The side and front profile, however, are just awful. Interior was nice. Couldn't get a decent shot of it due to all the glare and reflections in the windows.

Run of the mill hatch with funny looking grille; not that designers can do much with that shape, a wrinkle here, a crease there. :huh:

Pretty much agree. I don't think it looks particularly bad...just looks like a standard hatchback with a slightly weird grill.
