I will be keeping my beloved 1M. The 1M is becoming an iconic car, and I can't imagine ever parting with it.

Even if I weren't so attached to the 1M, I would not be compelled to buy the upcoming F32, and would be far more interested in the 2 series - especially the M2.

The F32 is 5 cm longer than the outgoing E92, and I already think the E92 is too long. Although it may be slightly lighter than the outgoing E92, I doubt it will have noticeably better driving dynamics, and certainly won't compare with the 1M fun factor. And it remains to be seen if issues with electric assisted steering are properly dealt with.

And while I like the overall shape of this concept (it is similar to the beautiful 6 series coupe), I do think the F32 is a bit overstyled - especially that boomerang shaped faux air vent on the fender. Perhaps they will tone down the styling of the bumpers on the production version.
