welcome to the site, bmw's are all RWD ^, and they are definitely not gonna have an AWD 1er any time soon.

Not so sure about the not having AWD anytime soon...I can them throwing X-Drive on the 1 in 2009, just like they've done with the 3.

Um...BMW's are either AWD or RWD, but the 128/135i will be RWD with no plans of an AWD

this is not correct. as to whether there will be an all-wheel drive 1er, no one knows. i haven't run across any rumors as such. it wouldn't surprise me if they did down the road but no one really knows at this point.

they're planning an x1 suv based on the 1er rumored to be out in 2010; see autoblog.com.

You may be confusing the 1-Series with the Mini.
