I dont believe people would cross-shop a 335i with a 135i. In my opinion they dont look anything alike. I think it all boils down to size. The new 3 is a long car with would have more luxury. The 1 series is smaller than a e36. correct me if im wrong. I suspect they will have very different audiences. So who would buy the 3 over the $7500 cheaper? I can think of plenty of people who would pay the premium for a larger car to put there family in, and drive to work, and go to the store. Size does not matter to me because im single, and dont need such space.
