Sales of the 2008 BMW 1 Series in the U.S. have been confirmed for early 2008, but for now a two-door coupe is the only model BMW officials will talk about. Our latest spy photos indicate there's a convertible in the works too, and we would be shocked if this soft top 1 Series didn't show up shortly after the coupe's debut.

BMW fans in the United States have long been clamoring for an opportunity to buy the 1-series, which until recently was thought to be a Europe-only car. Now that we know that a few two-door versions will be available in the U.S. in 2008, we're thrilled to see a convertible undergoing testing. Brenda Priddy and company spied the 1-series convertible, and progress on the pint-sized droptop seems to be moving along nicely. We're likely to see similar engine offerings in the convertible as the coupe model, which will be unveiled with either the twin-turbo 3-liter or the naturally-aspirated inline-six. When the convertible will make its debut is up in the air, but expect it soon after its fixed-roof sibling.
