kinda like the new 3 front, the back is kinda strange...the body lines are very sculpted which i like a lot...but still the BMW 5 is better!

i agree the back is strange, reminds me of a old infiniti G30t (or w/e), but i like the current body style for the 3, especially the coupe and M3 style, curious how BMW will pull that off in the rear of whenever the coupe and convertible comes out

Saw it for the first time in person yesterday & my impression didn't improve from seeing the pics. It's nice from the front & the side but the tail still looks bad, I sat in the car & the interior feels relatively cheap & looks outdated already
