This car looks better and better with each photo/video. Can't wait to see this in the flesh.

I much, much preferred the e92/e93 design to the e90 but have to say this 4 coupe does nothing for me. I don't think I'll ever get over those ugly looking side vents. Can't wait to see the new m3.

i hope its not gonna be another expensive vibrator

The X-Drive 4 series suspension doesn't look high... Did they finally understand people might want 4 wheel drive without feeling like riding a boat ?

Is the height the same on the coupe between X-Drive and S-Drive ?

btbossman · 09-17-2013, 05:42 PM

Loving it!

bimmerjph · 09-17-2013, 05:42 PM

Dayum the N55 is fugly.

TreDirtyFive · 09-17-2013, 06:06 PM

that video is horrible. beautiful car though.

r3dbimmer89 · 09-17-2013, 06:13 PM

This car looks SO much better in real life pics ....if an E92 and F30 had a baby...this would be it. Only thing I don't like are the cheaper plastic panels on the doors and dashboard. Looks like the plastic from my Ford Escape.

Is it just me or is BMW really trying to push their xdrive system on this car? Marketing?

The white 435i was the only xDrive model at the launch drive event.

Love the color combo; even though AW is not my first choice of color.

Diver · 09-17-2013, 07:20 PM

Sweet. Will there be a PPK for this in the USA?

Yes, the 4 Series M Performance Parts have been announced and revealed:

The 435i PPK will add +33HP / +37 LB-FT

Can you elaborate on how the car sounds? I am really curious about the engine sound in M performance for both 428i and 435i. I am assuming 428i wouldn't sound as aggressive as 435i.

This car is not equipped with M Performance parts.

It has the M Sport package, which sound the same as non M Sport cars.

I don't have a direct comparison of 435i vs 428i, but we shot these comparison clips back when the 335i and 328i had their press launches. Includes both interior and exterior comparisons.

She doesn't need no M Performance parts to show her beauty.

pkimM3r · 09-17-2013, 10:23 PM

Those brakes are pretty weak sauce for what they are calling them. Msport.

Not impressed with the car. After the m4 comes out 328/335 whats the difference??
