Hello all,
Trying to decide between Countryman or wait for BMW X1. Any thoughts?

The X1 comes out when? I have read 2011 but it isn't on the BMWUSA website. There should be a big price difference too.

I've become bored of BMW tbh. I would go Countryman all the way!

I saw some X1 spy shots, and I wasn't too keen on the styling. Go Countryman

Countryman

Here in Brazil we have X1 and Coutryman to sell in the same store. I already drove both in different versions.
X1 118 is 10% more expansive than Countryman.
X1 2.8 x drive is 30% more expansive than Countryman s 4.
So... If you will gone a buy the cheapest one the best choice is BMW X1 but the best option is buy the best Countryman that you can buy, will gone a be the best choice.
It's faster , nicer and really beautiful car.

Yes Brazil is where I saw them both. Iguazu to be exact. I did like the Countryman and got to drive one. Will probably just wait to drive X1 when available in USA. Can't wait to go back to Brazil.
