I saw what I believe to be a 1-series hatchback at Circuit City in Ocala, FL (of all places?!?!) on Friday. It looked old though. It was all black. The headlights were cloudy and had a brownish tinge - looked like a very old car. I told my friend it looked identical to the pictures I saw, but he said it was way too old to be a new car. The curves were obvious though; I'd never seen a BMW with curves like that before 2003. It had a real long front (hood reminded me of the Z-series), but the back looked more rounded than the one in the picture above. I don't really know what I saw, but it looked a lot like the 1-series pics many have posted. Unfortunately, I was just picking up a gift on my way to Miami so I wasn't able to get a picture.
