I know there was M4 discussions but

Really it just needs some more aggressive arches.

DTMfiberwerz.com, yo?

Same... I've been lusting after one with an LTW high-rise wing and some wide ARC-8's and meaty tires for the past week or so...

E36 has grown on me. It isn't as aggressive as the rest of the M3 family, but its hard chiseled lines make it timeless in some sense, much like blunts firm jaw line and flowing locks.

It does not scream performance, looks like every other BMW/Euro car maker.

e30-e90-e46 are my favorite M3, e36 is ugly IMHO.

It's kinda like BMW is going the way Chevrolet went in the 80's and 90's to big and bland

also too many model lines. why do we need a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7? only newer bmw i really like is the 1M, but has the crappy motor, and was limited production.

About as heavy as one as well...

e38s were only 3,800lbs the new 4 series will probably be a bit heavier

Solution:

Buy a Hyundai Sonata.

See previous "Bimmaru" post.

Now you have that^

Chris Bangle hasn't been head of design or even worked for BMW for at least 3 years now. Remeber the Z8 was Bangle's so he wasn't all bad.

My mistake, I don't really keep up on this stuff. Still, I don't think there's been a truly beautiful BMW since the e46/e39/e38.

[Dozyproductions]

its like a kia optima hatchback.

^ If you're being serious... The E30 M3 definitely wasn't supposed to be "bland". I mean, look at the box flares and big wing haha! Now, the E28 M5, that was definitely a sleeper.

In no way was I being serious, although you're right.

I still think they need to fire Bangle. BMWs cars still look like shit compared to the German's other offerings IMO.

I dig the front... and then the rest of it is a little too 'soft'. idk.

And those stupid M6 wheels just need to fucking die already... I'm so sick of seeing them...
