You can not and should not base a car purchase on spypics alone, be it good or bad.

I think these pictures proves that the 3 series is prone to be more conservative and stylish, than the more youthfull, creative 1 series (F20).
So no need to worry, i remember how it was when E9* was in this phase, it didn't excatly got praised, everyone says, f*** this, i'm keeping my E46.
History repeats itself once again.
So true! Regardless of generation, for better or for worse, BMWs just look about a million times better in person than in photos. I remeber my opinion would turn 180degrees when I saw some of the ugliest ones in person. I try to take the spyphotos not on face value, but imagine the car in person with those extra detals and curves that dont quite come through in photos. F30 so far seems to be a smaller tighter F10 with sharper and more aggressive design lines
