There are no specs yet for the F32 because this is a concept model. The only specs given so far are the physical dimensions, which are posted in the comparison.

I get that this is a concept, but holy CRAP the F32 looks like it's running a lot of negative camber!

BMWRL · 12-05-2012, 04:33 PM

I mean, this car is stunning from every angle! I know those bumpers will be toned down, but man are they mean. This is a winner! BMW is just so good at the 2 door car designs, from the Z4 (best Z car design IMO) to the current 6 series. Just all drop dead gorgeous!

Thanks for the comparo pics Jason.

Since they are doing side by side comparisons of old and new, this would be an interesting side by side also.

Eagle1oh7 · 12-05-2012, 04:36 PM

Not a fan of the rear or interior very much, liking the wider body though. Personally I like sedans and will continue to buy them when my E90 is worn out/kids get older. When you go to the club and you take some girls back to their hotel room or w/e the for doors make for quick in-and-out(no pun intended) LOL!

gonoyaro11 · 12-05-2012, 04:37 PM

That's concept!!

OverDrive · 12-05-2012, 04:42 PM

I can already feel how much worse the rear seats head room will be compared to the E92. But I guess the new roof line makes the side profile look a lot cooler!

freshnezzz · 12-05-2012, 04:43 PM

i'm so mad how bland the f30 looks compaired to this. finally BMW is taking some risk and i like it

I agree. I definitely prefer the pre LCI front end of the E92, which seems to have a more agressive and crisp look to it.

Mine too... no mather how much

Such a classy, elegant car. I've always hated the look of the E92. It just was a very feminine looking car IMO, and lacked aggression. This is exactly what BMW needed to do to improve it. This is gorgeous. Even the fender vent looks good. Personally, I'm more interested in buying the M4, and I can't wait to see what they do with that. I think we're all going to be blown away.

ORIGIN M. · 12-05-2012, 04:52 PM

It is ridiculous how much the new car makes the old one look dated.

I am hoping the 2er follows the same design language.

catalyst · 12-05-2012, 04:53 PM

When is the F32 expected to start delivering?

I imagine there will be quite a premium on the first ones.

TheBingoBalls · 12-05-2012, 04:54 PM

Wow. You'd never notice it by just looking at it but when compared, the E92 interior had A LOT of plastic/wasted space...Look at the controls, so much plastic around them.

Late summer of 2013.

BMWRL · 12-05-2012, 04:58 PM

I'm obsessed! I can't stop looking at this car!!!

Especially with the interior.

I'm also happy about the return of the driver oriented dashboard. It's one of my favorite features of the E46.

I'd say that's a good sign BMW has a winning design here.

You got that shit right. The rear end of the LCI E92 is fine, but the front is not....good...

Anyway, is it possible to see some pre lci e92 vs f32 comparison photos? And even some f30 vs f32?
Please and thank you!

I totally agree but with mods the car looks very aggressive. My car undeniably VERY aggressive looking. LOVE this car, 4 doors are for the practical...
