I'm not looking to get a new car soon having just gotten one in 2018, but when I do I suspect I'll come to the same conclusion I did this past time. That the 2 series Coupé is a vastly better handling car than the 4er simply because of the sheer size the 3/4 have gotten to be. Sure, the interior of the 4 was nicer, but the loss of driver feeling connected wasn't worth it.
The absurd horrible grill that just keeps looking awful every time I see it would be the clincher. Seems that the new 2 coupe will have one around the size of the 2 GC and I can live with if I can still get a manual with a B58. Lots to like about this car for sure, but they seem to keep missing the mark handling wise and a complete fail on the styling all due to the grill. My E46 330Ci compared to anything you could get then was unquestionably superb handling and looks drop dead gorgeous hands down. BMW needs to get back to making cars of unquestionable stature. Not cars that are good, but we have quibbles and certainly not relying on questionable styling gimmicks to appeal to a certain market. |

You would think that with the world on some form of lock down because of the virus BMW would show pity on us and do the reveal already.

Wait, where is that ugly bucktooth grille? Is it going to be M3/M4 only? Also, is that a revised digital cluster?

That's the one I'm looking at as well - my F36 will hold out until the 4GC or maybe i4 can sway me over

I really like what they have done with the 4 series. I think the grill will look great. Takes a bit to get adjusted to, but it's the same thing as going from a fully covered ultra conservative USA beaches (ones I have seen) to liberal Spain beaches. Takes some adjusting to do. Or if your GF /wife gets breast implants and a BBL, along w massive lips. Still same person just more. LOL. If you're into that.
I think the 4 series will look great and innovative moving way for the what will likely be a stupidly fast M4 comp, wider, lower with better seats. |

My perspective is thinking "steering is a line of code" that can be fixed with software is exactly the wrong mindset. Mechanical feel will be returned through more direct mechanical connections, and not simply reprogramming the same hardware. Change the hardware BMW!
