1. Rest assured: You will not regret a 1-series. It is great fun on weekends and comfortable and economical for daily grind. Resale value down the line will be a strong point for a 1. Test drive should be the convincer!

2. Do some checking (on this forum) about 128s equipped with run-flat tires, and - specifically - how they perform in snowy conditions (I noted your MN address from sig). Perhaps your dealer will give you the option of all-weather non-run-flats.

3. Do not allow plaid upholstery anywhere near a 1. :wink:

Best of luck with your purchase, and welcome to 1Addicts.
