Thoughts on the BMW 4 Series?
I'm thinking about Pre-ordering once it goes live. Is it wise to buy something completely new like this, or is it better to wait? I'm hoping it becomes a product.

It's not completely new. The drivetrain is dating back 2+ years now and most components are from the F30.

I think there are pros and cons to your question. I preordered the F30 so I could get one as soon as they hit the road. I loved having the new refreshed 3 when no one else did.
The downside was that I had to get a sedan and I was advised never to get a new model the first year. For example, when the 2013 F30 came out some of the options from the 2012 became standard such as automatic seats, I have rusty seat frames, etc. BMW makes changes as they go so I guess it's smarter to let the kinks play out after the first year. Luckily, the 4 series contains a lot of F30 components. Therefore, I think it would be safe to preorder. For me, I really miss having a coupe so I'm definitely getting one as soon as they arrive this Fall. |

Production on the coupe begins in July and convertible in November.
That means you can expect coupes to begin delivery in late August - September. More up to date info @ http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=600605
