the front looks okay to me. the side-profile looks too close to the 335i and the rear looks uninspired. but i do think form should follow function.

Maybe I am alone in this, but I think it looks great there. Hopefully it will be a tad more aggressive though, it looks like a garden variety coupe. Are they bringing the sedan back too?

I'm sure it will look great in person. The fenders are flared more than the 335, but its not that obvious in those pics. Any PShop experts able to tell if these are fakes? The cover looks pretty legit to me.

You aren't alone...I'm definitely likin it, and I don't care too much for the 335. I think a lot of people have to accept though, that this is going to be an understated car...it's not meant to scream look at me look at me.

I like the new rear end better. Need to see it in person. Photos change the perspective in funny ways.

I'm not a big fan of the new BMW styling. But I suspect that if I got behind the wheel and started driving the new M3, all that would become irrelevent and I'd probably want to take it home with me.

do they have a 'listed' HP and TQ numbers?

Is it just 400hp or will it be a bit more to one-up the RS4?
