sick....

Love the front bumper, but don't like how the roof is sloped in the rear

[mxa121]

I think it looks good. I can see the differences between the f30 and they are noticeable and good.
The lower edge of the bumper is ala lci e92 m sport.
The openings also look sharp.

Overall, I think it is a cleaner sharper bumper than the f30, which I feel looks very "thick" down there.

a bit like the F13 M6 front bumper?

Which is quite laughable at this stage how similar the cars are. Maybe it will be more drastically different with the next models as a member stated. But then again, the F30 and F32 look more related than the E90 and E92. So I don't get it.


And don't get me wrong, they both are great looking cars (the coupe is shaping up to be really good looking). My point is the differences have seemingly become less drastic, which is the exact opposite of what should've happened.

(Still all premature due to camo)

Agree 100%. The car looks like a mix between an a5 and a f30, which is not a bad thing at all as both of those are very nice looking cars. Ubfortunately, the f32 is not shaping up to be as "exclusive/stylish" as the 6er is compared to the 5er. The 4er is ultimately just going to be bmw response to the a5, which is not very distinguished from the a4.

I wish they would have at least chopped the wheelbase to 108" from 110". The a5 is slightly more compact than the a4 and the 6er is much shorter wb than the 5er. This would have improved handling a little bit.

WIN.

Oh, you drive an F32 M-Sport?

[needabeemer]

is it even worth getting a first model year 4 series? on one hand i want to be one of the first to have this car before everyone else gets it, but on the other hand what would be the point of getting it so late in the year (October?) only to have it replaced with the 2015 MY in just 6-7 months from then?

and if im correct, wont the 2015 MY be getting an updated engine? while the first MY for 2014 still uses the outdated N55?

im not so sure getting the firsty MY will be the wisest decision if this is the case, even though i REALLY want to because im tired of waiting for a new car.

my choices are:
1.) get the car when its first available, but regret it 7 months later when the newer better model comes out
2.) wait longer, something ive already been doing for over a year now


the worst part about it though is that if i do decide to wait for the 2nd model year, by that time itll only be a shorter wait for the M4, and by then i might as well wait for THAT

does anybody else feel these same frustrations? i cant be the only one ..bmw really screwed the timing on this one up

[Alessandro]

dont understand why you are waiting for a car life is short just buy a car thats it i personally would not wait a year or longer for a 3 series sorry 4 series its not an aventador.

[rmani]

looks like this thing will be a real stunner when it's fully unwrapped.

The only shared exterior parts between the F30 and F32 are the door mirrors and door handles. Everything else is unique to the 4er .

They cannot be retrofitted to the F30 because the vehicles are different in size , track and width.

Thanks for confirming. I wonder if track and width is closer to the 3GT than the F30.

....and yet they still manage to look identical minus 2 doors.

Actually, they don't. But you need to see the Coupe in real life to see that.
There is a bloodline but everything is very much a different interpretation.
Proportions , stance , outline , details width are all different.

[hyperboost]

bmw definitely has room to make the wheels more concave! this car needs good looking wheels! come on BMW

[Blindside_137]

Scott, you are defending the uniqueness by providing the concept photo. Obviously that car was unique. This is still under camo but a majority of things are extremely similar in shape (maybe not proportion) compared to the F30. The headlight shape looks extremely similar. There's no denying or defending to be done; excluding perhaps the rear only, the F32 and F30 look more related and are less unique compared to one another than the E90 and E92 are.

Life is the longest thing you'll ever do.

[sal501]

How aggressive this car would have looked with the connected hexagon lights and LED tails. Sad that BMW has to maintain status quo and deliver the new lights to 7 series first, and then probably in next 3-4 years offer it as a hyped up option in 4 series LCI. Predictable aren't we BMW?

The production car is 90% of the concept car. Granted the 10% is everything that makes it unique. LOL @ BMW logic.

I love the back wheels... the car looks great! Can't wait for it to be officially revealed...
