Whew, that is fugly. Looks like an ancient Civic with that bubble ass. It couldn't even get over a speed bump without a full stop.

SUV. Super Ugly Version.

I don't think it's ugly overall...just ugly for a BMW. If anything, the styling is forgettable and will blend into suburbia seamlessly.

It would be more palatable if BMW dropped the pretense of off-road capability and just called it an Estate wagon, though.

Will the X1 supplant the X3? That car is getting pretty long in the tooth. Of course neither of those cars are as single-eyebrow raising as the E38-amino-acid flashback camera platform. I just hope that the bird's next camera operator doesn't meet the same low- bridge destiny as the Google Maps car a couple of weeks back.

I don't know, maybe bringing Bangle back wouldn't be such a bad idea.

It's gotta be better than this, no?

@doctor 1 penny: I know, but I don't think even knew it would go this far. I think he would have put an end to it before this happened.

I want that camera truck! E38-amino with extra seating up front!

The X1 isn't that bad looking, but I will be saving further opinions until I know more. Like, will it have the M3's 4.0L V8? Then I would definitely like it.

@engineerd: Unfortunately, the E38-amino is only available in select third-world markets.

Dammit so f*cking much. FAIL. Argh.

They don't even pretend to offer SUV-like ground clearance. This is just a way to get the 1-series 5-door into people's hands for more money, especially in the US where the former is not offered.

I sincerely hope Europe laughs this thing into shame.

Dear BMW,

Please scrap the X1 and produce the E38-amino instead.

Don't worry, Xzibit is all over it, dawg.
