Looks nice, just wish it wasn't so big. Seems to be about the same size as an E63 6 series...

Not bad, the bumpers are a bit dodge-dart-ish but definitely something I could grow to love
Why it even exists in the first place, still a mystery....

I bet E30 owners said the same thing when the E46 came out.

I'm sure they did, just wondering when the up-sizing is going to stop. At this rate the next 3 series is going to be the same size as a 7 series.

Why do bmw. mercedes and some GM and Dodge products now all share the same bumper, ridiculous.
It is a nice looking car though, just wish the boomer on the quarter panel wasn;t there, would improve the cleanness imo.

Is this pretty much what it's gonna look like? I hope not. It would be absolutely gorgeous if they toned down those bumpers.

Danimal & I were operating the scales at Mosport for scrutineers during a race-series and on our spare time we weighed our own cars & a few others (friends). I was surprised to see that my E46 M3 weighs 45lbs more than an E32 750iL!!
