^ It looks more like a 3er than a 1er, so not that bad smile

I like that someone has already set up a forum for them before they've gone on sale.

Looks unexpectedly pretty after the oddness of the 1 Series.

I like the look of that, feel the rear 1/4 image looks a bit too tall (hope 135i prices come down)

whats not to like? Its a 3 series rather than the 5 series which the current 3 series is. Make sense? What I mean is the current 3 is the size of what a 5 should be and the current 5 is the size a 7 should be, so its a reverse back to a decent size.

Looks nice, way better than the 1 series coupe which looks v awkward and like a 1 series with a boot on in my view.

I like that alot, it even looks to have an M badge on the side similar to a Z4M.

Those pics are taken through a very long lens and that's making it look a bit odd - it's visually 'compressed' from front to back somewhat.

Looks great but practically speaking my m135 was the right choice.

So is the 2 just a coupe version of the 1, like the 4 is a coupe version of the 3. Why is BMW mucking about with their age old numbering system?

I love the way they've intentionally made the latest 3 & 1 series fugly so they can unveil the far prettier 4 & now 2!

Need to see a decent profile shot to determine if it's lost the "dumpiness" of the 1-series coupe (I like the 1-series, but it's not elegant to my eyes). But from those shots, this is another very good looking BMW smile

I guess this will be just a tad smaller than the existing 3-series coupe, which is fine by me.

So, when can we expect the launch of the 2 and 4 series?
