I'm not sure why only the 3 series was made like that, but it ruined the clean glossy trim of the M Sport models since it ran next to a dull and fading rubber trim on the window. |

Guys if you look closely they photoshopped out the side vent, and they also photoshopped out the camera in the front grille. I believe they are keeping a few things under wraps for the reveal.

Bmw colors seem not to translate well from their marketing images to real life I'm hoping it's not misano blue

..I swear they are using that image to convey the crease from the bumper to the notch in the new headlight design...

Also - could we get a mesh wheel option for the m340i at the very least. I'm starting to be over 5 spokes

Could be but that looks much stronger & deeper on the X2. Personally I think we'll see a few all new colours on the G20... hoping the blue one in the manufacturing video is of them!

I'm hoping its a new one too.... though I like the color in the picture it looks like it could just be phytonic blue or whatever the X3/X4/X5 are getting which is nice, but I'd want a color that is a bit exclusive (though I doubt all that many x3-x5 buyers get that color as it is)

Although they should have kept the traditional hoftmeister kink, it seems that it’s going to be a great looking car.
It’s what the F30 should have been from the beginning with the correct hood line placement. It seems that all this G-Series generation are F-series with the hood line placed correctly. Very clever placement for the leds indicating that autonomous systems are on on the wheel, without having to put a big round led on all the circumference! |

I hope it's not Misano Blue either, but it's one of the choices on the new Z4 configurator. I usually love BMW blues and bright blues in general, but after seeing it in person on a bunch of X2s it hasn't grown on me at all.

in that video i think there are IR camera arrays placed above the digital cluster that directly face the driver. maybe this is similar to what Cadillac is doing with their supercruise? a driver monitor system perhaps. man it would be amazing if BMW releases a system on par with the supercruise that does hands free highway driving. that'll put them on par if not superior to tesla's autopilot. (unless firmware V9's mad max auto lane change is absolutely perfect)

Tesla Autopilot is an extremely poor reference as their minimum hardware system is the same MobileEye platform found in KAFAS Gen2 BMW's. |

truth is autopilot when used attentively, is much better at highway driving than any other systems i've experienced, certainly better than the ones on the new 5 series, which has a nasty habit of bouncing between the lane markers. |
