That's what I was afraid of; it somehow feels like a cheap extension of the 1-series and not a different model line. I think the differences are way too subtle.
Strange, since BMW had this whole strategy of changing the E92 3er coupe to 4 series with a different design, and they didn't after all (I know the reasons marketing and stuff). Now we have a 3 series coupe looking very different from it's 3-series sedan brother, and a 2-series looking virtually the same as the 1-series.
