| Re: 1 level up : Efficiency and Performance on a new level. My first guess is the coupé, because of the use of a CSi-badge. |

| Re: 1 level up : Efficiency and Performance on a new level. According to BMW at Chicago autoshow, tii concept won't go into production. So I guess this CSi will be the so called Tii but with a different name. |

| Re: 1 level up : Efficiency and Performance on a new level. I can bet we won't get this because it would make the 128i irrelevant. M |

| Re: 1 level up : Efficiency and Performance on a new level. I doubt it, BMW USA has a no 4-cylinder belief in place right now and they'd hardly drop the 128i so soon. M |

| Re: 1 level up : Efficiency and Performance on a new level. not really they wll both make sense, 128 is for relaxed driving, smooth big powerful straight six, it is by no means a hooligan, unlike a 120 CSi, the demographic appeal for both is very different whereas the average 128 buyer will be a newcomer to BMW looking for a "good" price, adequate engine, and the usual BMW stuff in hope of upgrading to a 3 in some years, the average 120CSi buyer will bea boy racer in his mid twenties looking to drive like an idiot and tune the hell out of his car i do not condone this behavior but it serves a purpose far different than a 128 |
