numba1guju · 11-13-2009, 12:46 AM

if thats a 4 cylinder just imagine a 6

cyba · 11-13-2009, 02:09 AM

nice!

mkaresh · 11-13-2009, 11:35 AM

Looks at least as large as an older 5. Longer hood to shift the engine rearward?

Making room for a 1 sedan in the U.S.?

TWSnow · 11-15-2009, 04:59 PM

Just as cool as the current 3 series.

that does sound pretty good!

DrDomer · 11-16-2009, 01:53 PM

Looks like it has similar lines to the new 7-series... Not sure I like it.

NOPE
BMW ALWAYS does a 7 year model cycle. The model with come out in 2012 as a 2013 model. It should either be in the spring 2012 or fall 2012. My guess is spring because this is time we have been seeing the new models recently.

hopefully its get some of the styling from its bigger brother(5 and 7)especially interior

definitely deeper in sound...
4cylinder turbo? 328?

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

That sounded like my i-6 diesel. It was definitely a manual, but the driver was using little of the rev range, as you might with the diesel option. Just my two cents, but that's a familiar sound to me.

They should make it a 12 year cycle for the E90 cause this is a sure flop
