There are a few flaws in the design execution in my opinion. This would be one of them.

There's GC coming out as well (4 series sedan). Both coupe and sedan came out great.

cupholders look good but also look like an absolute dust/dirt trap thats incredibly hard to clean

stupid tacky side grille/gill things need to go away

and do the headlights really need a badge on them telling you they are led's, may as well put a badge on the bumper telling us its a bumper, badge everything !!!

Give it some aggressive fenders, remove the silly vent thing, and I would never want those stupid woven cupp holders.... Heaven help you if you spilled something... What a pita to clean.


The overall profile and and front rear are great looking though.

I agree with the hood line too.... They should have kept it where it met the kidney grills as that is natural and necessary break for the hood line.

Typical modern BMW, way over designed. Woven leather interior reminds me of Audi's baseball glove stitching on the 1st gen TT cabrio, although not as smart.

MY biggest issue are the enormous openings front and rear. Maybe it sucks in leaves, grinds them up, and deposits them out the back??

ADubM3 is an unknown quantity at this point
Looks good except the opening in the lower front and rear bumpers. I hope it doesn't weigh as heavy as it looks. The E92 already is a tank.

Nice! World class interior and exterior designs. I still think the next M-version should be labeled M3.

Same thing I thought....looks like an Audi A5/S5. Exhaust is so Dodge Chargerer esque. I like the flatter, wider stance but it needs some wheel arches. Also, too busy with the front bumper plastics.

Interior wicker weave looking crap looks terrible.

Well, it's bigger, so best I can see is it doesn't get any heavier. Wish BMW would take weight loss as seriously.

It doesn't look too bad but why erase almost 40 years of heritage!?! I would understand if the 4 series was a 4 door!
