make it too poor. (I would like to know how much anyway)

Also, I found that e36 length is 4.47 mts. (176.0 inches), so you can guess which car would be the 1-coupe be nearer of in terms of length.
I'm not sure how much longer the coupe will be than the hatch, but I'm guessing it will be about 24 inches longer than the MINI and about 6 inches shorter than the E36 M3.

And while that's not as small as I might like, it's much smaller than the 335i. No slam on the 335, but for some of us, smaller is better.
