The tailights especially look like they copied Lexus's L shape design language. |

BMW UK website says 330i has 258hp and 0-60 5.8s... why the discrepancy?
(I think BMW maybe call it HP but actually state the PS which is slightly higher!) But as there will be no manual the 0-60 time should be standard! edit: I guess the UK site is giving a 0-62 time! Last edited by nozydog; 10-02-2018 at 07:38 AM.. |

Long vid, but it's pretty in-depth in terms of exterior and interior design.

I cannot get over how disgusting this looks. It doesnt know if its a lexus or a c-class. The new Toyota corolla sport looks 10x more expensive then this and that is just sad. The car in all trim lines looks cheap and I just cant get over how they blatantly copied a freaking Lexus for the rear. I had reservations ordering an EOP M3 but im glad I did. I hope M does something special for the G80, But I dont know how they can even put lipstick on this pig. Interior is awesome but I don't think its a huge leap forward. I cant say it dates the F30 interior much.

I agree 100%. This sucks, beginning of the end. Have to start looking for another e46m as a "fun" car and just lease a truck for daily again!!

Yeah but to me it's a big problem that you need to spec it with every single option, just to make it not-ugly...
The standard car F30 doesn't look like a full on sports car, but at least the bumpers look good... the standard here looks like some crazy electrical-prototype

Where have you been? There have been hundreds but they've all come and gone pre-launch! People have either accepted it or moved on... BMW won't suddenly change that now because a few of us enthusiasts complain... we have to suck it up

It's officially grown too much - the F30/80 were borderline on that front, but this is on another level. It looks like a boat...hopefully it drives better than one...

The M-Sport is a lot more expensive compared to the standard models here in Denmark, so not really an option that they make that a requirement to make it look decent.

Apparently the white paint is 46lbs lighter than metallic!!! In the past I've made the mistake of ordering a base car with a fair few options.... but you never get the value of those options back come trade in time! |

Looks nothing like a Lexus. Looks like an evolved F30.

So CAR magazine says its 85mm longer (well over 3 inches)
This thread says the length is apparently 185.7 inches which is 3.3 inches longer than F30 (4633mm = 182.4") It appears it's even bigger than we thought!! |

Well, glad I leased my F80. This next one is definitely getting my order! Even in 330 guise it's great. Not to mention that the 340 accelerates nearly as quick as the F80.
I just hope that they've improved the sound AND will make the //M version less of a pay to play thing where you have to order the competition or CS to get a proper //M. |
