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.

Oh yeah, that question would go over fabulously.

I was wondering why lane change warning is not available on the M-sport package? Not in Europe though, not sure about US

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?

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

Can you ask them why active cruise control is $1200 on the 428i coupe, but $2400 on the sedan?

Thanks

If they are planning on a new engine, most likely for the mid cycle refresher, so approx three years.

Do you mean a proper M Perfromance model or a 435i with some carbon bits and a software retune?

Does the 4-Series have a fully-functional sunroof like the 3-Series coupe or does it only function like the 6-Series with tilting glass?
