I could not agree with you more. They belong in the middle. I don't know why they moved them.

That is not the production interior, BMW borrowed parts from other models just to get a working Interior, for now.

X3 and 6 series are both different interior styles from the 3, 5, and 7.

Again, per the text of the article:

Quote:
We're fairly certain that the center dashboard as shown here isn't the final version/trim. It rather appears to be a cobbled together combination of interior panels BMW had at hand -- particularly the center console, air condition, and radio units, which seem to be sourced from another car.

How does "start stop" work when it is hotter than hell outside and the AC is running? Does the compressor go electric?

everything looks great. 2 things that i am not feeling

1. Start/Stop feature - i honestly see this as a very annoying feature. I hope they have a way where one can turn that feature off.

2. The front end - i dont like the way it just slops down so much. it looks borderline ugly. the current e90 is a lot more porportional in the front than this new f30.

Why would you NOT want the 5er or 7er interior? They are a dream come true in quality and looks I wouldnt mind a more driver oriented version of the 5er, but that doesnt look like its happening, but atleast its more driver oriented then the e90, maybee something a little bit angled closer to the e46.

M-Sport rear bumper is going to be a MUST on this car

That is the "Unfinished" F20 1er dashboard in that 3er, the 1er gets the option of a flat screen monitor that sits at the top of the dash , similar to the BMW 6er Coupe and Convertible.

The 3er will feature technology features from the 7er and 5er as it is important to it's segment. The sector the 3er leads is earmarked for serious growth within this decade which is why there will be additional 3er models coming from the new modular matrix developed for the 1er/3er.

Mass Production of these features such as Head-up display will mean BMW can offer the 3er the option more cost effectively. The 1er will also share this technology usually earmarked for the premium luxury market, again stressing it's importance as a segment that will deliver more growth within this decade alongside the 3er in the Premium Compact segment.

Steering wheel looks like the one on my wife's new X3
Love it, but that aluminum piece gets dirty and is a pain to clean
I still prefer the controls on my Audi A5
Or even my fiat
You get so much more control in the fiat
Volume + - and track + - behind the steering wheel
And the buttons on the front are for cruise control and phone, mute etc
And you can navigate the entire menu from the buttons on the steering wheel

I'm going to have to disagree - I think that looks very production ready (unfortunately).

The cobbled together look is just the early prototype stage. The fit of those parts look like they belong, they just aren't 100% finished - it's difficult for suppliers to make small detail parts.

Looking at those edges, it appears that there will be some sort of trim that would surround each unit (climate and radio) in the shape of "C" - probably chrome/silver. Take a look at that close up - it would just 'snap' in - you can see the outline of where the "C" would be.

I think the interior will end up looking much like the X3, which I'm not particularly fond of.... and how the dash just ends like someone else pointed out.

The calipers look like these lightweight ones, but no the disks. I hope the F30 hase these.

Agreed!! The new 7 and 5 interior has been the best BMW has produced in a very LONG time.
