I'm really disappointed! I think it looks weird, especially the tail-section. It should have a much fatter rear, now the back looks so tiny and unpowerful, while the rest of the car seems to be to fat and big.

The E46 coupé was an instant eyecatcher, this will take me a lot of getting used to...

Im still waiting for pics to see the car in this colour. Lights colours dont suit many Bangle cars. Give a blur or black one.

i think the pictures make no justice, I remeber seeing the E46 coupé in pics and not liking it, even the E90 and now I love them both. Seriously, look at E46 M3 pics and they make no justice IMO...

Honestly, it's pretty cool, but there are some fundamental flaws. The rear lights on the trunk don't form one good shape with those next to it. And the rear wheels look like they're 12 inchers

I still think the biggest failing of the E90 is the rear. But the coupe is alot better than the sedan. The rear from the B pillar onwards looks a bit out of place with the wheel looking too small.... Maybe it'll look better in real life.

Still, it's still better than the sedan. Not bad....

Looks pretty good but the rear is very weak IMO.

Not bad but I find the rearview mirrors too big as in sedan's. The rear lights are better though, more BMW than the sedan that could be mistaken with a japanese car from the rear ....

It looks not suprisingly a lot better than the four door variant but as it is the case with all bangle era designs the flared and big wheelarches need big wheels to make it look proportional, i also believe that the particular pics are not the best possible(as they are official), for example the pics that i saw earlier posted on the other topic on the new coupe,although worst quality depicted the car in a more flattering way. I like it a lot and i cant wait for the new M3
