The new G22 4 Series Coupe World Premiere is coming June 2nd

Rewted · 05-26-2020, 10:32 AM

Considering June 2nd 2020 is a Tuesday and the Live Event states "Wednesday ∙ 02 June 2020", I've got a bad feeling about this.

It's back up, but now just 5 minutes worth of a still matching the screen grab with the date/time on top...

SOC was listed as June 3rd on someone's spy shot a while ago, so possibly some confusion over moving it to the 2nd? Or with the 5 series LCI update being this Wednesday, they may have just swapped out the date only in error on the communication? You think they would be consistent with the date of the week, though, especially if it was matching their original SOC, German's like to stick to plans and all.

That being said, the ICS file is June 2nd as well, and I would think they would get a date correct before the day of the week?

Either way, might as well make this entire launch a hot mess.

Perfect.

Page up, page down, back up, date A, date B... It's like their product launch team is trying to find the cheat to remove the gigantic grille.

I am sure they would search the audience for eggs before being allowed to enter.

Yeah, just with a thinner and more matte frame.

J-RO · 05-26-2020, 11:13 AM

Looks like the Cerium Grey color to me. If so, I hope M performance has black grilles.

That can be done in five seconds.

I would suspect those are the laser options.

I hope it is thinner. Personally, I would have preferred frameless.

GOLFFRR · 05-26-2020, 11:14 AM

excited to see the final result and to hear the reviews

Jockey · 05-26-2020, 11:20 AM

So you're saying only a couple more days before BMW becomes a laughing stock?

Game · 05-26-2020, 11:24 AM

Finally the grieving process will begin.

Al1969 · 05-26-2020, 11:37 AM

@bmw
2nd june is a Tuesday 😅

M2Cmtl · 05-26-2020, 12:02 PM

I’m hoping for the best but I’m bracing for impact...

That is one corona nose you got there.

I was very impressed during the concept 4 live reveal mainly due to how tidy the dimensions came across and that it brought a breath of fresh air to the stale design language milked by the G20.

I hope the perception of tidy dimensions has translated to the production car. Just a handful of days to go

Tidy=arranged neatly and in order. Hope that applies to what appears to be a rather large grille.

Germanauto · 05-26-2020, 02:23 PM

Ugly as hell.

BMW's been a laughingstock for years, this will just really hit it home to the casual observer.

Does anyone have the video, which was on the earlier version of the site? Can't find a cached version anywhere unfortuantely...
