Rumson, NJ -- (SBWire) -- 04/05/2011 -- Circle BMW, one of the region’s leading NJ BMW dealers, is excited about the pending arrival of the 2012 BMW 128i Coupe. The unmistakable profile of the 1 Series Coupe, which represents the purest expression of BMW DNA is now sharper than ever. The new design of the front fascia on the 128i includes BMW’s innovative Air Curtain that counters turbulence near the wheel arches and so reduces the aerodynamic resistance of the vehicle. New exterior design accents have been incorporated into the headlight and tail light clusters. In the interior, new switches and controls have a more refined look and feel. The updated 1 Series Coupe will go on sale this Spring.
In 2008, BMW introduced the 1 Series to the U.S., an authentic performance coupe that drew inspiration from the iconic BMW 2002 model of some 40 years ago. As perhaps the next BMW legend, the 1 Series Coupe represents the core BMW philosophy of pure performance, compact dimensions, and premium design. By combining sporty rear-wheel-drive dynamics, agile handling, powerful engines and seating for four, the 2012 1 Series Coupe continues to reinvent the niche that the legendary BMW 2002 created.
Powerful engines, the rear-wheel drive typical of the brand and inspirational agility make the BMW 1 Series Coupe in NJ stand out from the crowd. It possesses characteristics unique in the compact premium vehicle segment.
