Love the exterior styling.

Looking it over now....

Interior - LOVE all the extra leather all over the interior. Upper and lower dash, door tops, console, over the glove box.

Seats look great!

Love the side shot. Looks like a bulldog.

What the hell is wrong with the engine?

Glad I switched to M3. It looks fantastic. Those "official" YMB pics look better....

EDIT: Holy f*** the black seats look awesome

The rear bumper treatment is much better than I expected. The M3 looks great and the M4 is even better than I anticipated.

First glance liking the sedan more than the coupe. Hood looks too busy and hood bump looks like an afterthought and doesn't flow well to me.
Interior flat out looks cheap and seeing as it shares the same cheap interior plastics with the f30 not surprised. Nice they finally have a real full leather option that covers the dash.
Hope they have some good color options because both those exteriors are awful, especially the hairdresser/girly blue.

I am not trying to bash people or anything, but when it comes to the whole turbo/electrical steering debate, I don't think people should be allowed to speak (hypothetically obviously!). If you don't own the current V8, your opinion is as good as anyone else's, and you may as well say something that is completely untrue. There are obviously still people who own the current M3 and they like the direction the new car is taking and that's fine, but if you were to filter those responses in all the forum threads here and consider only the M3 owners, there'd be a 50-50% split, if not more would be in favor of the V8.

I also remember seeing a lot of these "my next car is M3" people in the E9X forum in the past, a lot of ideas, dreams, and a lot of them ended up in 135s and 335s and started creating 335 vs M3 threads. It's one thing to say it and another to actually take the keys. Just saying
Ironic given that no one here has driven the new engine. What good is insisting on such authenticity for only one side of a comparison?

My previous 2 cars were M3's (e92, e46) so I'm happy to mock your terrible grasp of statistics. An equally unsupported statement: recent e90/e92 purchasers are much more likely to be unhappy with the new car than longtime e90/e92 owners...
