Agree and the 4ser just looks like a wider F30.
The red 335i is not the best looking version of an E92.
BMWblog is comparing a plain Jane E92 to a monster
of a concept, so obviously the concept would look better.
One thing everyone is forgetting or overlooking is that
the 4ser is almost the size of the previous gen. 6ser. To
me, imho is way too big, and will make the 4, more of GT
cruiser than something to attack a set of corners.

The production version of the 4 series looks a lot less impressive

Ok fair, enough. So this should level the playing feel (comparing production models)
This is true.
4 Series:
Wheelbase - 2,810 mm (110.6 in)
Length - 4,641 mm (182.7 in)
Width - 1,826 mm (71.9 in)
Height - 1,362 mm (53.6 in)
E63/E64 6 Series:
Wheelbase - 2,778 mm (109.4 in)
Length - 4,831 mm (190.2 in)
Width - 1,855 mm (73.0 in)
Height - 1,373 mm (54.1 in)
Only marginally shorter, narrower and lower than the 6-series, though the wheelbase is tad longer.
That being said, the F30 is almost the same size as the E39, and likewise the the F10 is almost the same size as the E38.

True, but at the size of the E92, I feel it is at borderline limit, between sporty coupe and cruiser. The E46 coupe gave you a very awesome feel when you attacked a set of tight corners, even though the E92 is good and fast in fast sweeps at higher speeds, I just feel that the larger dimensions hinder the vehicles agility in tighter corners.
So anything larger than an E92 is just going to make it less chuckable in the corners and make it feel like a whale.
