Am I wrong for kinda liking the 2 Gran Coupe?

Can't really call it a Gran Corolla anymore, I'll give them that. I still hate that it shares a name with the two door despite having exactly zero common components.

Same. I’d rather it was called the 1 Series Saloon. Which it is in reality

It looks so much better than the outgoing one IMO.

I agree 100% despite the “that’s a Kia” jibes the new 1 Series got

Nothing majorly wrong with it aside from it not feeling like a ‘proper’ rear-wheel-drive BMW. Its many buyers don’t care about that as it’s a first step on the BMW saloon ladder. Horses for courses. Compares favourably with the Audi A3 Saloon e.g.

Does it feel claustrophobic inside ?

I assume you mean in the back. It’s fine, nothing more or less. Not a car designed for carrying large people in the rear for long durations
