not bad...still not a fan of the front end with those re-styled headlights, but the rear those taillights have the weirdest shape to them i like the previous 3-series a lot better, preferably with the M package

There have been 330 owners that have opted not to trade in their 330's for M's. Must not be that bad of a car. But yes, it does lack power. Although a supercharged 330 6 speed can be somewhat quick. There's a guy that's local, I'll have to race him, just to see who's faster.

Overall stance and proportions are very good, but there are too many garrish details. Which pretty much describes all of the current generation BMW designs.

Its ugly, well mainly the butt. However 255hp and lighter + stiffer sounds nice. I hope the coupe looks nicer though.
