I'm surprised how well the proportions came out... it's actually better than the A4 Avant.

The rear end is much better then on the sedan.

Just hope the coupe looks even better.

I've always had a soft spot for BMW touring's....they always remind me of coupés...and they usually have reeeally cool engines (except maybe for the 3ers)
This one is no exception....it's damn beautiful, and the 5 is too...on to the coupé, convertible, M3...

Yeah likewise. I think this is much better than the Sedan. Especially those taillights, much much better.

The coupe should have different body panels including headligths and tailights.

It looks like an overgrown 1 Series.

It looks pretty good. The tail lights are a little too big though

I was expecting them to change the shape of the tail lights...

Still very nice tough.

Whatever simplyfies production and hence cuts costs is welcome so why would they do that ? What's more they are not that bad.

BTW, the 3-series finally gets a full power version of the 3.0l diesel (taken straight from the 7-series) whereas the previous one had a detuned one.

Meh, they just don't do it for me... Only negative design aspect of the car in my opinion.

Not that it is too important tough...

Looks good, but I'm still not sure about the the white reverse lights, I.M.O a bit too Japanese...
