A new PS by Lehmann: - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER (click the image to enlarge) But it is quite accurate one. The hood, grill and the headlights are spot on! The front bumper is not as chunky on the real car - especially the bars in the air intake are off. And the part with the kidney grills hangs over bumper, not cuts in it like on E90 or in this pic. Profile is accurate, except the rearlight are wrong. And of course that orange thing on side mirror is just a camo tape. |

So what is the deal is the 3 coupe going to keep the B pillar or not? Some pictures, that are PS, show it having it and others don't. |

Not sure I like those headlight on the last pic... it's not so much the shape, but they seem small. Let's hope they fit better on the real thing. |

There is a confusion because there are two "coupes" out there: the real Coupe with a fixed metal roof, and the folding metal roof Cabrio which looks very much like a coupe. Quote:
The new DO 3er coupe suffer from same "5er syndrome" - smallish narrow headlights when looked from this perspective. That and the rearlights will be the very much a debate topic: whereas the headlight look too small on this car, rearlight look kind a BIG from some angles. As they said: "BMW will never produce a boring [read: non-controversial] car." | ||

OMG! I was so wrong!!! That Lehmann's pic is genuine E92! Only BMW logos are missing on the rims, and orange camo tape should be removed from the side mirrors - VOILA! After comparing the details & studied them very precisely I realised the car was genuine - not a PS. A strange angle of shot totally misled me!  Guys, that's it! But wait for the press pics to see more details and shots from different angles. The press pics are much more revealing!  Btw, now the next week seems much more reaslistic time frame for releasing the press release!  |
