Please bring the 220i over the the United States.

Kinja'd!!!

180 (more like 200) horsepower would be perfect for this car. It would also push the price down into the high 20s, making it the most affordable BMW on sale in America.

If you do bring it over, I'm going to need a Black 220i with sport package and 6MT sooner than later.

They should also bring over the 120d and 116d 4-door hatchbacks.

Yes, yes they should. Maybe a few gas models as well.

I think I could as well, but I would end up with the 118i. But if you gave me the voice of any new BMW I would go M135i in a heartbeat. M235i is only available in Auto. I am really disappointed...

I just read a thing on the BMW USA site saying:

"The 135 kW/184 hp four-cylinder engine in the BMW 220i Coupe is making its debut in a compact BMW model..."

We're we supposed to? The article I got that from was October 2013.

i find it ironic that people call for these models then yell that the brand is going down market.

They can go as downmarket as they want, more affordable for me!
