Where do you see orange reflectors in the headlights?

I can't C+P the image because it's embedded into flash. Go back to the BMW NA web special for the 1er coupe and click on "Meet the 1", then you'll see 3/4 front end shot where if you look closely, you can see the orange reflectors.

I gotta admit, I kind of like it better this way (as opposed to on the fenders). It lends to a cleaner look IMO, and the orange reflectors help to make the headlights look a bit smaller.

Did anybody else sign up at the BMW US microsite? I managed to enter my details after a couple of bad tries, but never got any confirmation e-mail...

Don't think you're actually suppose to get any e-mails until events start coming up. I hope they release some sort of preliminary brochure sometime soon, but that may not happen as we still have another 8 months from the cars launch here in the U..S.

I started filling out the form, but when it prompted me to select a California dealership, my local dealership, Long Beach BMW, is not listed. How come?

Diesel!

On the int'l site (http://www.bmw.com/com/en/index_highend.html), I like that they're showing the 4-cylinder variable twin-turbo diesel motor as one of the two 'official' motors. It gives me hope that they'll finally bring that sweet, sweet oil burner to the states.

On the other hand, I spoke to someone at BMW Seattle yesterday during the local CCA Concours and she said no diesels in the 1 & 3 series until at least 2009. :mad:

Unfortunately, I think she meant Calendar Year 2009.

F*ck. F*ck. F*ck.

I guess that means an additional year to bolster the savings account, though. :smile:

Also, that means the kids will be 6 & 4 by then, so they'll be able to climb into their car seats/booster seats by themselves so a 4-door won't be as necessary.
