Damn that does sound good.

KL2DC · 11-11-2009, 04:17 PM

Needs blacklines and CSLs!

Can't wait for the launch of F30Post.com!!

Sako_335 · 11-11-2009, 04:29 PM

sounds sick

Craig@SupremePower · 11-11-2009, 04:32 PM

nice..

anthony @ eas · 11-11-2009, 04:33 PM

Cool.

JamieA · 11-11-2009, 04:35 PM

Well, that's whet my appetite!

s1cke92 · 11-11-2009, 04:45 PM

i hate these. i cant see the car. haha also it looks like a Maserati for some reason to me.

Mii · 11-11-2009, 04:53 PM

Nice roar! The side profile and proportion looked even better in motion.

In relation to the appearance The car is a bit more smoothed out than the E90 , you will see comparisons to both the E36 and the
E46 in it's proportions but detail will be more crucial to the cars intentions. You will recognise some of the body sculpture and some of the ideas from current and cars you have yet to see. The first family member of the new 3er family is of course the X3 and will showcase some elements of the new family design.

An full indepth 3er report is upcoming in the next four weeks.

There will always be a manual option in the 3 series.

BillLee · 11-11-2009, 05:13 PM

sounds pretty freakin good.

PaulBailey@ltbmw · 11-11-2009, 05:16 PM

Nice update.
That looks like a completely different exhaust.

NiVeDh · 11-11-2009, 05:21 PM

Sounds amazing.

funkedelic · 11-11-2009, 05:35 PM

Love the sound but... Is it just me or am i the only one that finds these extremely ugly?

Not too sure.. it's kind of hard to tell at this point. The way the front nose is angled reminds me of the new Evo/Lancers, but I doubt that's how it will look once fully revealed.

bavarian19 · 11-11-2009, 05:50 PM

nice!

GnokGnik · 11-11-2009, 05:59 PM

I am assuming that is the higher end F30 3 series

Sounds better than my 335i with stock exhaust.

jaceaholic · 11-11-2009, 06:04 PM

nice

CPI · 11-11-2009, 06:08 PM

sounds great!

d3l0n · 11-11-2009, 06:09 PM

eh.. i dunno...
looks like its not a true dual exhaust
definitely deeper in sound...
4cylinder turbo? 328?

i expect a 3.2biT or 3.4biT to replace the 335
