The E36 was still around in that time frame, and both the coupe and sedan shared the same front end then.

God, I hope they get rid of the ugly F30 style headlights. My current bimmer will be my last if that trend continues. F30 is the ugliest car I've seen in a long time.

i think BMW has really painted themselves into a corner with the current M=Performance models... they already look like what the M's should look like... and if this is what M's look like, especially that front bumper, I would have to question it... Not feeling it at all... Plus the mirrors are lame...

Looks Amazing

Looks great IMHO...however

Why have we heard so much about the M4 Coupe and 4 Series Gran Coupe but there's barely any info on the 428i / 435i.

To be honest, the M4 will be out of my price range. Looking forward to pricing of 428i and 435i w/ M Package.

Correct me if I am wrong but didn't scott say that the difference - lookwise - between the 3er and the 4er is going to be as the difference between the 5er and the 6er? In that case, this render is way off.

IMO, the F30 is the only 3er sedan that looks good. The E36 and the E46 sedans are really fugly and not proportioned.

To the guy who said that the I6 is going to be lighter than the V8... Well good luck with that.

You mean massive body roll, a steering system that is not connected to the front wheels, and the engine note played through the speaker system?!?!?!?!

BINGO! ...Im with you mate ~ and wishfully thinking that it would be nice to not connect the headlights to the grill visually

I expect more connection at the top of the grill and then the lights will pull away as you get to the lower part of the grill. You can see this on the 328i hommage concept, as well as the same outline on the F10 LCI update.

^^ Yup. See how the top of the kidneys kind of connects with the open/light area, then pulls back as they go lower? Same language on the F10 LCI. Although we can't see much because of the camo, you can see how the top part connects.

I hope it doesn't look so "rocket boy" in the front. M3's have always had a classy look. This is overdone IMO.
