looks great
best news is the 88lb weight saving despite increase in size puzzling news is the n20 runs 0-60 in 5.7 and the n55 runs 0-60 in 5.4??? Is performance really going to be this close for what will certainly be a $7k price difference?

The Msport Steering wheel reminds me of the Z8 Steering wheel with more buttons! I like it!
The I-drive screen. Looks like there was an extra slot in the dash during design process and one of the engineers decided to slide an Ipad in there. Not bad looking however it does have a disconnected look to it.

In pics, it looks like they could have saved a lot money and just put new front-rear bumpers on the E90.
I wish it was less evolutionary, but hopefully it looks better in person. Really not sure about that colored stripe on across the IP! |

Not loving that weird swoop in the dash, at the glove box. Also, the front end looks like a catfish, especially on the catfish colored car.

This is the new ///M-sport brake option. With this you get lighter 4 Piston calipers with larger discs compared to standard brakes.

One small point:
I don't like the crease across the hood...why did the break the hood up ??? They could've easily had the small front portion part of the whole hood so you don't get the huge horizontal crease Same with the 5 series. Car will very good in the flesh, much better than the akward e90 Still not a stunner or anything. The f10 is better looking, smoother, sleeker. |

I'm glad they fixed the lines at the A-pillar, got matching door handles, and got rid of the CD tray cupholders.
I just don't know if I could look at that dash for 2 hours every day.

Add me to the "disappointed" list...
The exterior design is way too Korean-looking for my tastes. The interior quality looks nicer, but that M-Sport steering wheel is very unattractive. Also, am I mistaken or is the NAV screen 'fixed" in position? That looks like an afterthought and without a shroud it will be subject to major glare issues. None of the revealed wheel designs seem exceptional, either. And add me to the list of those who dont prefer electric steering. 7/10, BMW. I expected a whole lot more... |

Lack of iDrive integration in the dash is appalling. looks like they went backwards (very 1 series-ish) with that one instead of using a clean design like the F10.
Power output on the iDrive? A new way for BMW to keep tabs on your tunes, I'm sure. Very suspicious...
