fuck BMW, they can keep that shit over there!! bring me a nice S3 2door coupe!!

Couldn't agree more. They should bring over the M5 Touring instead.

The S3 does look nice, but I would definitely pick a twin turbo 1 series over the Audi.. Come on, RWD and 300hp in a tiny hatch? Too bad BMW has to charge an arm and a leg for their cars.

GTi ?! What GTi ?? There isn't any GTi to compete with this....

I heard about this before. The 130i was suppose to be the most powerful 1 series but now they're planning to introduce the 335i engine on it. It's basically the same size.

Meh, that's what you get from a crappy anonymous news site. I think they must have meant the VW Golf R36.

wonder if the new RS3 will have the same 5cylinder 350hp engine as the next powerful TT.

^ I strongly doubt that theyīll build an RS3... :roll: But the 135i was only a question of time...

the 1-series is still the most-dull looking Bangle'd BMW but at least it gets a good engine this time. don't they also have plans of putting that twin turbo engine on the 5-series...

I don't know if they will but I guess that engine wouldn't fit in the 5 series philosophy.

depends what kind of laces they have!

Yep I agree, Audi's can be fun too!

And that 4 wheel drive Escort Cosworth that was a blast too!

Even with 300hp itīs still a horrible and expensive car. Iīd rather have a Golf R32. But of course, thatīs me.

That is going to be one crazy car, as if the 196kw 3L engine wasn.t enough!

There are also rumours about smaller turbo engines and also E46 M3 engine.

Lets see how the rumor mill starts when the new v8 M3 is out ;)
