Is the 1-series replacing the 3-series?

nope
is a new line
cause mercedes got the B class
Audi got the A3
BMW need to come wif an entry lvl car
so the 1s comes in tehre

I don't think we can compare the 1 to A3 and B class when it can outperform the TT and SLK.  

It looks slightly boring to me but the performance is superb given the reasonable price tag.

rs1985

well
the way it performs have nth to do with it's price tag
i am saying
that price goes wif those competitors

It is nothing new .. been out for years .. ( hatch )

but for sure, it is nothing to do with B ..   B is a totally diff line .. more or less compare with Yaris ..  Versa ..  etc ..  lol  B class is a joke ..    drive like a C 9 car .. look like a C 9 car .. and cheap cheap interior ..   and .. it IS a C 9 car ..   

and the C class coupe hatch is out now .. ( and will come back ) then it will be the car from Benz to response to 1 series ..

Actually ... A3 may be something compare with the 1 series hatch in Europe ..  but there is no S3 in Canada ..  

Realistic ..  G37 is something close to 1 series ..  ~ $50K loaded .. but 4.6 second  vs 5.3  ..  HUGE diff in performance .. and 1 series is actually bigger inside .. lol

Driven one a while ago.. felt tight.. rear visibility is crap... just like my old Opel Astra...  also tight inside which I like but probably passengers don't like.
