Agreed

Don't mind the price differential. Still mind the fact that it is a 4 series.

I suppose I'll get over it eventually.

So we are expecting late summer delivery next year? When is the earliest (traditionally) that you can start placing custom build orders?

Release the 4er GC please!

And then the 2er and 2er GC... 3ers and 4ers are too BIG, give me a 2er GC that is e46 sized in an M form please!

US prices translate at less than the $US to Euro exchange rate because in the US the prices do not include VAT or sales tax.

TotalPower · 12-06-2012, 04:57 PM

I'm excited for the 2series! between 1&3 in terms of price and size. Sweet.

2000 euro/usd is not true if they cut many accessories like memory seat. In the f30 they do. The price comparision must be made with same accessories.

That's great news, props to bmw for addressing this question

Same goes for the cupholders

i'm going to guess that the price speculation is just that.

When its a 4 or 5000 dollar difference don't be shocked. BMW will charge what it feels it can get, and i'm fairly certain a lot of people will be willing to pay.

If anything they should lower the price on the F30, but we all know prices dont tend to go down.

Sweet!

My only market in 2014 will be the 4GC or the regular F30.

All I'm gonna guess is that 4GC will be starting at US$50,000 base

too late to do anything now

guess this will be my fiancés next car for my sakes

I'd expect the price increase bring significant number of options for free (well they are not free but included). Otherwise we'd be paying more for the badge.

DMafia46 · 12-07-2012, 08:33 AM

This is the 3 series advancement the sedan is the 4 series next year, but but but what will the new 3 series look like

you'd be paying for less doors not the badge.

and people will pay it. i mean the 6 does cost more than the 5 even similarly equipped. the A5 is more than the A4, the CLK was always more than the C class. even the C coupe is more than the C sedan. its fairly accepted that people pay more fo rluxury coupes for some reason or another

Van G · 12-07-2012, 09:01 AM

What about the 4er Cab? Same timeline as the Coupe?

F33 will probably be a few months after the regular coupe. Remember it will be winter in the US/Europe when the coupe really starts becoming available, so cab will have to wait until Spring 2014.

Jason,

what about the m-sport option on the 4 series, will it be available once the production starts?

Thanks

Coincidentally, it seems that Germany is going BIGGER & North America is downsizing their cars.

F30 sedan - 182.5 inches long
2002 Continental - 208.5 inches long
Difference - 26 inches (2' 2")

And for grins, 1979 Continental - 233.0 inches (4' 2.5" longer)
