Look to the US 3 series coupe for a better comparison.

Although I think the 1er will be sweet, it's not going to feel light and nimble like your E30 325. It's still a bit of a porker, as are almost all new cars. They're safer nowadays, tho, and have a lot more equipment... We pay for that in weight.

The 123d would be the "have your cake and eat it, too" option.
Hey ducati - where in Ohio are you? I am a fellow Ohio-an and also a Ducati enthusiast.
