And finally, a car for the working masses. Never seen or sold before in Asia, we present to you: The new BMW 1 Series Coupe and the new BMW 1 Series Convertible. They look cute. And one is shown in the requisite red. Topless Einser gallery after the jump. Right this way ..

China will get this car with a four-cylinder Valvetronic engine. It goes easy on the gas (or on the “oil” as they say in China, much to the consternation of the foreigner) and complies with the Euro 5 standard that could become law in China in the not so distant future.

And there you have it. All BMW novelties to be shown in Shanghai. TTAC saved you the price of the ticket, the admission and the hotel. I however reconsidered. I’ll go after all. I’ll have to see whether that Brilliance A3 is there.
