What happened to BMW? Every model is looking worse and worse.

Preview of F32 M Sport model (via camouflaged prototypes) @ http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=600605

Thanks for the pics

Hope it is only a Sport/Lux/Modern look, but to me the 4 series looks more classy than Sporty in comparison to the F30.......shame

It's ok i guess, it'll grow on me - maybe.
Is there really a need for a "luxury line" coupe? Aren't coupes by definition supposed to be sporty?
I think I'll wait for the 2 series...

Couldn't agree more.

Not to mention this thing is looking very unattractive at the moment. I can't stand the new mirrors either. There is zero creativity there. The E92 mirrors had a great design, and the M3 even better. The current mirrors don't flow well at all IMO

This is the same exact body, only with different front/rear bumpers, headlight internals and mirrors

You forgot to add "In my opinion" after your statement.

Nice. Going back to the E46 look here. Total 3 series E46 here.

I'd love to hear from someone who attended the the production premiere the other day. Is the small amount of camo still making that big of a difference? It does seem to be covering up some important lines that can make a big difference.

Like the sculpted side line.

Every 3 series generation should give you a WOW factor but not this generation...

Shocking, another e92 owner trying to justify their car.

My thoughts:
The way the hood dips down (compliments of pedestrian safety guidelines) looks bad to me. The foglight surrounds dont look right at all.
The rear looks like a volvo (At the moment w/camo).
Hope mirrors are just prototypes.
Brakes look good!
All the new BMWs are going to take some getting used to. I was hesitant with the E9x initially but became a convert after driving one...

Wife still doesnt want to trade her E70 for an F15 though.

So annoyed by every 1 series and e9x owner bitching about the looks of the car. As if the e9x and e82 don't look like 5-10 year old cars

Right, but you have to fit "I sure am glad I just bought the old version" in there somewhere.

Of course it will look better once the camouflage comes off completely, as seen in the commercial shoot spy pics: http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=818697

That's what the camo is there for - to tease but not to fully reveal

[Shakal]

Looks bland and boring. I was looking for f32 to replace my e92, I was blown away when I saw Concept, but this car looks like 3 series without rear doors and doesnt deserve 4 series name.

Design is boring, engines are same... so what improvements f32 got compared to e92?

Agreed. I understand that side view mirrors need to meet local requirements and provide adequate visibility, but unfortunately they look like something that came out of a Mercedes Benz parts bin.

I'm not a huge fan of the front end look either, but the rear (revealed already) looks great and definitely not like a Volvo.

We might be entering another "Bangle Era" design fiasco.

[Cortexiphan]

I have an E92, and E92 looks VERY dated in comparison. F32 looks elegant and modern.
