From the Geneva Auto Show.

I like the V8 revving to 8k though.

Personally, I’d get a 335i.

Heavy and approx ~420hp.

I like the styling, just for my money I’d buy a 335i.

not feeling the greasy head mark:

also, not feeling the use of 2 different trims, the satin CF look, with the CF shift bezel. I think Gloss black would look great for both, but that’s minor.

wait until you see some modded ones in the scene.

question will be, what’s the potential of the new motor?

sideview looks good:

not my cup of tea AT ALL. i think this looks gross. also, the motor will have more power, but i also think it will be much more expensive to tune than the e46 has been. which is a huge :tdown: for me personaly. still cool to have a high revving v8, i just wish it were cheaper to boost/tune it.

Why BMW brakes are some of the best stock vs stock on the market, and the only reason to really go billet calipers is to go to a BBK for looks.

and the power bulge looks out of place on it
