Is jeremey clarkson the guy who does 'top gear'? Sounds like similar verbiage.

Yep... that's the guy. Very entertaining, but he does have his biases.

Did the person who wrote this article actually DRIVE it? Those are pretty grandiose statements to make for someone who hasn't.

the 1-er hatch and the 335 & piling it in the word blender and calling it the 1-er coupe.
Speculative lazy journalism...but probably accurate.

Let the hype begin!
