Spyshot: A closer more detailed view of the next BMW 3-series coupe

Beautiful butI cant imagine owning this in any color other than silver or black with a sports package.

Love the front end so far....Love this color as well... can't wait for it to debut, does anyone know
when that will be?

Love the front, a little of the 6 series coming through which is nice. Once the sport kit comes out it will add the finishing touches. Can't wait to see the M3!!!!

Byung_USA: I think that's a reflection of something red :) You can see the side indicators on the front 1/4 panel.

on the mirrors is reflector tape, who knows what for (so someone will see it when backing up so they don't slam into it on those crowded lil side streets). Also if you look closely, the front lights have something covering the corners near the grille. All in all I think this BMW was saved from some of the extreme design and they went for a really nice redo of a modern classic.

I'm calling this a PhotoChop job. The headlights don't have the ugly Bandlesque character that is all the rage in the house of BMW.

As you can see in the pictures, there is tape on the front lights...this car is pretty much undisguised. And remember, according to BMW, the Bangle-era is gone now. The next cars will be a bit more conservative and this coupe is the first of the de-"Bangle"-izing of BMW.

audirules... your posts about how you're still laughing it's getting kind of old now. Might want to stop using that line.<br>

Anyway, the 3series coupe looks more elegant than the sedan. I thought it was supposed to look more aggressive. If the M3 is going to look like this but with wider flares it might help but I think the current M3 is the best designed M3 up-to-date. But i hope BMW proves me wrong.

Why couldn't all BMW 3 series have the same design treatment? This car is a beauty. I hope the next M3 is based on it
