Someone need to photoshop away the eu plate and put a US plate in the holder quickly so we can get it over with before the reveal so we can focus on things that matter as weight...

Did they change the bottom of the front end on either side of the grille? It looks less offensive.

I think it looks good! Plus no offset radar sensor so I'm glad it isn't standard

I'm not looking to get ACC either, so I'm hoping for no sensor as well........not that it bothers me that much.

Same... the sensor isn't a huge issue for me but I'd prefer no sensor altogether.

September is coming soon!

As much as I appreciate symmetry, the active cruise control is awesome. Even in an M car, the ability to let the sensors do the throttle is a great option to have

I think it's just the angle. The bumper looks the same.

The best I can say is that it is not as bad as the regular 4 series.

The G22’s wheelbase is only 1.6 longer than the F32’s and the same length as the G20’s. Shouldn’t be noticeable.

One thing I'm still not certain about is the rumor of the M4 GC. Does this hold any weight, or is it exactly just that- a rumor? I still don't see why they'd need an M4 GC w the new 4 series getting a GC version too.

Didn't understand it a bunch either on the F32 gen but hey it still sold I guess.

Hmm...That comparison doesn't quite add up. 2 generation leap vs 1 generation?

E92 Coupe: 181.5
F22 Coupe : 182.6
G22 Coupe: 187.7

5" is a massive increase relative to past successors. This thing is BIG. (See: Thicc)

Still not over the 'dynamic' front end, Dodge Charger hood indents, and droopy sides with the timid barely-there door line. Stance looks good and I am confident the mechanical bits will be all-business. Shame about the ugly suit though. RIP tasteful design
