2012 C63 coupe
Pictures of the next 3 series coupe (4 series).

They posted pictures of the next BMW 3 series coupe with a comparison to the current generation car.... wow is all I can say. I can only imagine what the next M3 (or M4 as it is expected to be named) will look like. MB will need to really step up design in the next C63 coupe.

BMW 4 series coupe

New one looks futuristic!!


However, production model shown is NOT a M3. It is a 335i. The article is basically garbage, except showing off the ridiculous new body style.

I realize it's not an M3... just saying that the M3 will be even more aggressive. Also, this is their official concept and not the production model. I suspect it will be toned down a little. Regardless, I major step forward for the 3/4 series coupe over the current generation IMO.

Yeah, that looks about right, based on the 6-series I've seen driving around. Definitely the best looking beemers in a long time.

Front lower fascia looks almost identical to the up and coming 2013/2014 E63 AMG.

To be honest, I think it looks 'ok.' But it could just be me being biased towards Mercedes.

The 4 series presented is a concept
Many of the features seen on the image prob wont make production
I would say the bumper design would be one of them

Agreed... however, the profile, stance and width will remain and all are improvements over the current generation 3 series. Car designs (Audi, MB and BMW) are constantly getting better... great to see.

It looks sick. I love the new 6 series, but don't love the motor. This is a baby 6. Have to say I did not like the sedan when it came out, but this looks very nice.

The front looks terrible. The bumper intake/grille reminds me of this:

The lower front fascia is a copycat of the the E63 lol.
It looks futuristic but this is clearly not love at first sight.

I'm sorry. I wasn't meaning anything by it. Not insulting you at all. It was just an observation that I had.



And I agree, a lot will probably not make production, but I like lower and wider!!!

Hey no worries... I didn't take your post negatively.
