Entering the hot-hatch space later in 2007 (though it's not quite a hatch), is the BMW 135ti — considerable bait for European hoons of the small-car persuasion. The littlest Bimmer will be fitted with the same turbocharged 3.0-liter six as the 335i, giving it a 306-hp kick in the rear (drive). Maybe it'll even come out at the same time as the Audi RS3. Hatch party!
