I sure wouldn't buy that sawed-off 3-series that they try to pass-off
as a different model.

Depends on whether you need to carry adults in the back.

Dave, since he said he has no kids, I assume he's not going to try to
telescope adults into the back seat either. As you indicated, the 1 series
makes a great 2+2, but it's certainly not a 4 seater.

it's also a tough fit for adults in the back of a 3 series coupe if they're
around 6' tall.
