I think it looks quite cool?! :fencelook:

Its like saying: "If you notice me driving in my new 4 series you will appreciate it, and if you dont, dont worry - Im not trying to impress anyone other than myself"

What is that ugly "boomerang" doing behind the front wheel arches? :yuck:
It will probably grow on us with time... Or maybe not?

It’s a vent, I don’t like it one bit, and it looks completely out of place.

Admiring a 428 and a 435 at JSN :praise:
However I agree the fender gap is too big... Or it needs 20's :thumbs:

Was also admiring the 435 and 428 at JSN on Wednesday morning.

Dont think these cars are gonna come out with M-sport, well thats what the salesperson said. I think there should be because it does look a tad high

The Mrs and I were on our way to her company function on Saturday afternoon, late as usual and in a hurry...as the 335 roared through the quiet afternoon main street of Paarl, something caught our attention as we flew past the local BMW dealer...Not sure what it was but it seemed we both had the same thought in that instance as we passed it...I look over to the Mrs and she says, turn the car around....we turn and the 335 breathes a thunderous breather in 1st and 2nd as we stop in at the dealership...low and behold, a majestic 4 series in white with full M Sport gear...looked like a 435 but could not see the rear badge...there where M badges on the front wings though... It looks amazing but I feel the wheel arches need to be a little wider with wider wheels at the rear...
Got home last night and see this white envelope with a BMW sign on it...we open it up and strangely enough find the new brochure for the 435..:rollsmile:
Someones trying to send us a message...:roflol::rollsmile:

The grey 435i is a M-Sport - parked next to the window by the waiting area. I still maintain it either needs larger rims or needs to be dropped by about 3-5cm.. :thumbs:

They are absolutely gorgeous cars! Interior is still the same as the F30 but damn the lines are excellent. I also saw an Estoril Blue M-Sport when I left the dealer :praise: My word..

Nothing new here same F30 front and a lower roof, and still parking like a douchebag, nothing new................:rollsmile:

Well look in the back ground how douche I parked (white e46), stupid parking layout in the corner there. So I exploit it to prevent some idiot from opening his/her door on my car :argh:.

So a mate of mine got to see the first 4 series to be written off on friday night at rivonia.



Surely that is not a right off??:slow:

Generally they do cause most of the airbags deployed. Says that they lost control in the bend at about 140 km/h and took out some poles etc.

I seen a 435 Msport (White) here in centurion, I must say that I was a bit disappointed with the overall look, it looked a bit boring :fencelook:

and the interior is almost ditto to the F30 :flyfun:

I agree. I saw a 435i on Witkoppen. Had to look again to make sure.

To me the new 4 series looks like a 3 series with two doors. It doesnt have the coupe appeal that the E92 had vs the E90. I found it VERY boring in appearance. I was keen on getting one but not anymore.:thumbdo:

I dunno if it was an MSPORT one though. Maybe they look ALOT better.

Also saw it in the flesh at JIMs. I must say as much as I wanted to like it after sitting in it, I just couldn't digest the looks or the lack of individuality. It just looks like another F30 at the local street corner. The roof also gives it a very flat profile, in fact u could say its almost a fastback not coupe. The Merc e-class coupe and A5 have this thing whipped for on road pressence..............only a diehard fan will buy this, not many new buyers will be attracted, a lot of oppinions I hear are that its looks like just another BMW. Dimensionally its grown too big to be considered sporty, even e92 is at the limit. This however is lacking a sporty stance and is really too long. Think most people will look at the 2series, which is more interesting to look at, which retaining that typical BMW sportiness, & doesn't have that cheap plastic boomerang stuck on the front fender....... :yuck:
