Default BMW 4 Series Coupe spied in production form!

First look at BMW 4 Series coupe production model - via Bimmerpost.

Much more aggressive than the current 3 series coupe which is too soft looking when in stock form. Looks like a mini 6 Series coupe, which is a good thing.

So it's between a 3 series and a 5 series. could go either way I guess, seems nice regardless.

Isn't the 4 series the old 3 series coupe? I thought that's what they're doing with their naming system (even = coupe, odd = sedan)?

Yep 4 series is just a 3 series coupe. They are just renaming it to fall in line up with how the 5 series (sedan) and 6 series (coupe) are named.

i like it. Looks to be sporting the new M sport parts. Fender vent looks kinda cheesy and a bit panamera-ish,and that "sport" badge doesnt help, but i like everything else. Wonder if those 4 piston calipers are standard or M sport options....

so does that mean that the new 1-series is going to be renamed a 2 series?

I believe so. The 1 series in Europe right now has 4 doors.
