I still want to know what the pricing is going to be like on the 4. It SHOULD just be a couple thousand more unless they decide they want to charge more because it's now a "4".

The 3er and 4er will still share many components regardless of the new numbering, so you have to expect them to look quite similar.
Keep in mind, the new 3er nose is modeled after the i8, so many newer models may take these cues in the future, the f30 just happens to be the first. While i dont love it, its growing on me, especially in the Msport guise.
Pricing is difficult to predict but its not necessary that the 4er is more than the 3er just based on the Series number, per se, but of course it depending on the exact model and options. For ex, the 6er when nicely optioned can be more expensive than the 7er, and im certain the there will be 3ers out that will be more than the 4er --however, in the case of the GC though, it will likely be more than most 3ers - who knows, they may only reserve this model for as the highest offering in the series, ie it may only be available as a 435i and thus more expensive than a similarly optioned F30 335i based on how the 6er GC is significantly more than the 2door 6er even at MSRP. Id assume this to be the same situation as they cant price the f30 335i and a fxx 435i GC the same or they'd be competing against themselves for sales.
