Like somebody already mentioned the 3, 5 ,7 series will share some resemblance of each other. While 4 and 6 series will be your choice of coupe or convertible. I am going to assume there will be a M4 sometime in 2013.

Those side mirrors are huge like the 328i?

335i round shaped ones are much better.

This 3 series is wayyy nicer than the previous gen.
I would actually consider this now if I were looking for a small sedan.

hope the exterior is better in person...


but the interior is a definite upgrade. all started off with the new body style 7 series, then the 5 and 6.. and now even the 3 gets this treatment.

love that three spoke steeringwheel design too. the current e9x series interiors just look like crap and dated now compared to its current rivals..

cant wait till the press release cars gets onto our lot..

That's the speed cloth option I believe, at least it's called speed cloth on most models. It's only available in Europe, maybe other countries as well, but definitely not in North America.
We'll be getting the leatherette and leather.

Just came back from BMW and already put down deposit for the 2012 328i M sport...

The car is expected to arrive around June! Hopefully this would be a good daily car until my Tesla arrives!

people were saying the same thing when the e90/92 came out in comparison to e46. You are comparing an older design that has been refined near the limit vs a new basic design that has lots of potential. Compare a 2007 Coupe Vs 2011 Coupe.

You're comparing a coupe to a sedan. I think the sedan looks better than the last gen.
