Nice find...

Well the official release of the 4 series is here...



I like it, just don't dig the side gills.

I don't like them (yet) either.

I read some place they've been nicknamed Beamerangs

That'd be a tough choice!

A lot will depend on how charismatic BMW can make the turbo straight 6. I have no doubt it will be a powerhouse, but it needs to charm, too.

I just hope the GT350 is a true M4 competitor..........with NO caveats this time

My lease is up on my M3, just ordered a 2013 which will be here in Aug. By then the Mustang will start to have some SE versions, and I pray that they really don't skimp on some things with this car...like you said..no caveats.

Dave.......I'm guessing yours is already built as the last one was built today!

Oh, and I hope they give the M4 the cool lights from the 4-Series concept. I was slightly underwhelmed by the production 4 series lamps.

My 2013 M3 is built and will be here at the beginning of August. Has to come through the Panama Canal. That last M3 was a individual color M3 and it was destined for delivery in Belgium.

A bit overstyled/fussy at either end, but basically very good lines and proportions.

Like the general style of it, love the greenhouse and the headlight/grille section, but other than that its over done. Also, another color please!

I agree and I LOVE all M cars. What they did right looks great but I'm still not completely loving it. Though what they did do is execute a good design that is more pleasant than aggressive and completely acceptable and not polarizing. I have however always hated that green on the e36 that this reminds me so much of.
