I read a post by Scott26 saying that we will only be getting the M235i and an M performance X3 model in the US market. He didn't mention an M435i.

It was rumoured last generation that the coupes would form their own 4 series, but it was scrapped. What was it that made it happen this time around?

3 Design - hood design and cut line
Hoot Cut Line:
Why was there a need for a discontinuous hood line in the new 3 series? The change in E90/E92 was somewhat better (the line cuts off at the grill) The BEST design was the E46, where the grill is attached to the hood in one full sweep. Hood Lines: Again, the E46 had a better lines on the hood, starting from one corner and ending into the top left/right corners of the grill In E90/E92 it was less emphasized In the latest 3 series (and others), it is all over the map, different curvature, and don't connect anywhere.... The round curve to the front makes it look like a giant tub. |

might be a stretch, but they probably wanted to establish the 3 series coupe product first in some markets, build a following, before going through with that name change.

Ditto, the hood line looks terrible. Was there a technical problem?

Is there going to be a convertible xDrive 4-series? Available in M-sport as well?

When will they stop limiting us with the stupid "lines". Not a 4 series exclusive question but still. It's maddening!
