                    Obviously BMW are replacing the 3 series coupe with the 4 series. I have to say I like it. Not a fan though of the integrated exhausts in the bumper and obviously I wouldn't go a tan color interior but I do like it. Can't wait for the M version.

i guess you do need a bigger monitor.
I am running it on a 15inch laptop from work and pics look ok to me.

Im running about a 32inch screen and I think they are pushing the limits on size. Looks cool though. Looks very similar to a 3 series coupe to me. |

Wow. I don't love the grilles in the front guards, and the interior (with it's woodgrain, and brown leather) looks a little 'rustic' which I think clashes with the ultra modern exterior.
Overall though, Wow. |

WOW this car just looks stunning!
But I wonder how many of the smaller design features will be maintained in the final production version?

Aurion rear end makes me feel sick.
But the 4 series looks pretty cool, bar the grille area. Can't wait to see what the M4 looks like. Brown interior is puke worthy though. |

At first i was like "Cool audi"
But this is quite a looker...even that interior, looks very Germanic...BMW interiors have been quite bland lately...but this is nice... What happens to the Z4 series? will they keep it?

Looks a little too "busy" with the details for my liking, overall shape and the rear and head lights look like an improvement.
Hate the interior - makes me think I'm sitting on the inside of a leather briefcase..

Lol the drawing of the front of the car looks like it was done for a bad Jap cartoon.

Unique looking vehicle that certainly goes against the grain, but it's ugly as sin.

not a fan of the front end or the integrated exaust bit to try hard. Externally I prefer the E90 Coupe over the E92 and this but internally its a winner especially with a light coloured leather

Like it a lot, can't see myself ever buying another BMW though. Finally looks better than an Audi A5. Interesting to see what Audi counter with.

This is pure sex … but I will never be convinced to pay 160K+ for one when they are sold for 60K USA
