4 Series Actual Vs Concept

[CocoPops]

It is actually not that different..

BMW Power.

Which one is the concept? Like the bottom one more, more aggressive looking with the lower part front bumper, and exaust

Bottom is the concept. I much prefer the E92 to the F32 :fencelook:

The LED lights, the mirrors, the bumpers & the door handles do it for me.
Especially the Rear LEDs. Disappointed in BMW for making a 2 door 3series & slapping a pair of gills & a 4er badge on it :nonono:

prefer the e92 more:thumbs:

The concept looks better no matter which way you look at it.

 

[OppositeLockMT]

Concept looks lowered.

The wheels on the concept :inlove:

 

[SP33DYV]

Didn't like the concept and I don't like the 4-series. :nonono:
I do like the steering wheel in the 4-series though.

The problem is the small changes made to the concept, to make this look like a 3 series coupe. When the concept was shown, the BMW designers spoke about the creation of a car with its own unique identity, in fact in was spoken about quite a bit. I think a comparisons between the F30 vs F32, angle by angle and view by view will demonstrate what I mean.

There where a lot of unique touches on the concept which wowed us, but somehow never made it on the production model and replaced with generic F30 design cues. I mean the whole point of calling it a 4 series is to have some sort of uniqueness and individualness to the look of the car.This production model is nothing more than, and still is a 3series coupe.

Look at the unique LED headlight light up on the concept, replaced with the F30 style design, same with the rear tail lights with the stunningly awesome light up but replaced with the same stuff used on the F30.then there is the rear bumper straight off the F30. A lot of guys where expecting something fresh with a new model, but it just more of the same, just lower and wider.

With the E90 and E92 you can tell immediately the cars are styled differently each with its own look, but with the F30 vs F32, too much of the look is shared. If you consider how common the F30 will become on the road, I don't think most potential buyers will enjoy the similarity shared with the F30 as generally coupe buyers are seeking some uniqueness in the car they drive rather than something that looks very run of the mill. The exterior was an opportunity for BMW to push the envelope with the exterior design but its been toned down to much, even the width looks a bit narrower over the concept, and has just fizzled out into a great anticlimax................. :thumbdo:

 

[Kimeran]

It looks like a 2 door 3 series, nothing different :thumbdo:

 

[Nukleuz]

Also prefer the e92.

For some reason I just cant get over how the bonnet looks.
Its way to bulgy for me, It starts low, and then bubbles up over the engine and then dips just before the windshield.

I dont like that at all. :yuck:

 

[moranor@axis]

they should have kept the bumpers from the concept...

 

[BeamerMan]

I don't like that steering wheel..

The best thing about this new shape is the interior.

Not a fan of those fender grills

 

[Racerboy]

I dont see why people would but this over the 3 series?

 

[Nukleuz]

I dont see why people would but this over the 3 series?

This is the a 3 series...>Its just the coupe version.

 

[Zeral1ty]

Really liked the concept, the actual car looks plain boring! :thumbdo:
