The 2-door coupe-version of the BMW 1-Series we’ve been seeing in spyshots and spy videos around the net will be arriving in the US market in 2008, said BMW North America’s CEO Tom Purves. There is also a possibility of a convertible model, which has already been spotted by spies as well, so it’s not a matter of whether the car exists or not, more of where it will be sold.
BMW’s 1-series offering in the USA would most likely be the top of the range models like the 130i, and perhaps a new 135i using that sweet 3.0 litre twin turbocharged engine that was recently crowned Engine of the Year.
