I don't think anyone is going to fully understand until the final model is released.

I don't care what they name it so I'm not going to argue that but I still don't see how and why people think the 4-Series will be anything different - it's not going to be a baby 6-Series where's it's going to blow people's minds in this class of cars. From the spy pictures, it looks like going mimic the F30 3-Series like the E92 did to the E90 and I don't think any one really thought they were really different. You could sit in an E90 and then in a E92 and I doubt you would say they feel different. The drive, while not 100% the same, feels very similar.

I guess it comes down to how you really view the E92 and E90. If you thought they were truly different cars, well you're going to think the 4-Series is a brand new car. If you're like me who thought the E92/E90 were pretty much the same with the only difference being the number of doors.

No one knows for sure with the limited info out there but I just don't see anything that says it's going to be heads and shoulders above the 3-Series.
