dont care for it. i think BMW has really taken away from what where great looking cars a few years back. i think Audi is realling going to take up there market. they have some really strong products comming out in the near future.

Man, that bulge on the hood looks really bad...

The quad exhausts are nice, but I think the regular 335i coupe
looks better than this overall.

Looks pretty good IMO. Dont know what everyone was expecting, but the M3 IMO was never the one to have overdone styling and this one seems to carry on that tradition if you ask me. A few bulges here and there, new airdams, exhausts is expected.

Font fender flare = yum
lip spoiler = yum!
hyperblack CSLs = oh ya
front bumper = sweet
cf roof = nice!
fender vents = yay
shadowline trim =

hood bulge = wtf?
rear bumper = poke my eyes out with a stick.

Overall, pretty good. That rear bumper really looks terrible.

I'm still not diggin it either, I don't hate it, it just doesn't move me like the previous gen. I just get ah.........Japanese vibe from it as oppose to a German one..
