From Wikipedia about the E92 vs E90:

"The coupé's body is its own design and no longer derived from the saloon with two less doors like its predecessors. Almost every exterior design cue is different from the saloon counterpart."

Nothing different in the approach to the 3/4 except for the marketing move to make it a 4.
A traditional (looks wise) two door version of the current 3 series will look much different than the 4 series... if the 4 series is the two door version of the 3 series then what is the 4 series GC doing? and what if BMW decides to give you a two door 3 series?

I think the 4 series is intended to be a different car/line.
