Default 4 Series Coupe

Here is BMW's 4 series coupe that will give our S5's a run for its money in the looks department.

Better than the 3 series, but IMO, falls short of the S5.

Thanks but I'll stick with my S5 - much better looking IMO.
That 4 just looks like a....well....like a BMW.

I'm very pro-Audi but this car looks fantastic. Frankly the new F30 3-series looks beautiful as is, and this just builds upon that. I can't wait to see the M4.

This is not the production car this the concept version. Form the spy pictures I saw this car has nothing to do with the real world production version.

Looks like the love child of a 6 series and 3 series coupe. BMW's appeal has never been looks IMO.

The 4 series concept car looks great.

The question is - how much of it will go into the actual production version?
The leather interior looks nice, and the design looks fitting to take the place of the old 3 series coupe.

The problem vs. the S5. Again, with BMWs, you'll see a lot of people buying them immediately. And the S5 will continue to be rare on the road.

Price - The BMW 650 V8 is closer to $90K in price, while the Z4 is $48-$65 range. I don't know how they will price the 4 series ... $60K - $65K ? If the price is reasonable, it might fly. If they price it too high, I don't know.

If it does 4.5 - 4.7 seconds 0-60 and cost no more than $58K, it could be a popular new coupe.

So does this mean there is no more m3 coupe and the m4/4 series is taking over the coupe variations of the 3 series
