minus the exterior look...fail

The interior looks a lot like my 11x5, much warmer! I'll be trading my wife's e90 lci for this in the near future. Most likely going n20 and m pack.

I'm not sure I like the exterior over te e90 but it definitely looks updated

why does the navi screen look so friggin small? its like 6" (w) x 3" (l)! and from the pics it seems that some data is cutoff at the bottom because of the small screen...

Interior dash

Idrive screen

trunk (cheap as hell)

they took away the hydrolic parts to pay for that ugly screen.

That's the standard screen. The standard idrive screen is smaller than the one you get if you opt for Nav.

One of the reason I like about European car is they don't cheap and make the best out of the space we have. Guess what..I'm very disappointed regarding that..

Paul-Bracq-BMW · 11-29-2011, 05:04 PM

Enjoy!

justinnum1 · 11-29-2011, 05:37 PM

Differently down to two cars:

BMW 2 series Coupe
BMW 4 series Coupe

All others out of contention. And I thought I was going to leave!
