I saw it a couple of days ago. I have to agree though, that the new R32 beats the 130i in every way.

yeah, they made some pretty convincing arguments against the 130. the R32 was shown to be faster, roomier and cheaper.

In my head, I was rooting for the 130, and I was like, "NOOOOO, RWD CAN'T LOSE!"

But you can't ignore how great a value the R32 is.
