New pics of E92 coupe front and rear! What you guys think?

res_ipsa · 02-11-2006, 01:43 PM

I'm really liking the front grills that look like the 5 series. Surprisingly the E90's front is probably more aggressive.. I guess they decided to give the E92 front a sleeker look.

LjubomirE90 · 02-11-2006, 01:45 PM

I don`t like it!

deadfresh · 02-11-2006, 01:57 PM

Wheels gotta go but otherwise I like. Can somebody shop some 162s on or something.

Wow E92 goodies day today. Here's a pic of E92 spied. I make no representations as to genuineness... wayy too much speculation floating around, but this does look similar to the other recent light pic we've seen. Title of thread has been changed to be more descriptive.

First pic is the newer one I found today and second pic is the one posted a few days ago.

i kinda like it

Hula-Hula · 02-11-2006, 02:12 PM

I want the original with camo still on...

karbosshack · 02-11-2006, 02:13 PM

Don't really like it....the back is too long, makes it look like a Toyota Solara

Hornet · 02-11-2006, 02:26 PM

Photoshopped.

Let's just wait for the official BMW pics before the final judgement.

The AutoZeitung PS of E92 front is dead on. Only minor details off.

The other silver / gray E92 spy pic has PSed rear lights, BMW logos, front lights, grill, air intake, fog lights since those thing were camouflaged with a camo tape.

Look at the black 335i spy pic for the real deal.

look how small the bmw roundell is on the silver one compared to the black one shown

wyrm11 · 02-11-2006, 03:03 PM

hmmm...I'm not sure wha to think really. It does seem a bit long...not that that's necessarily a bad thing.

I won't judge until we see actual "official" pics (I'm talking the real deal, not what other people label official). But at least it helps wet the appetite til that happens!

Thanks for the pics guys!

shimshimhada · 02-11-2006, 03:05 PM

Regardless, I want to see one in jet black.

I agree! The tail lights are also not the correct shape on the silver chop (the top is not flat).

akhbhaat · 02-11-2006, 04:13 PM

Looks like BMW is going for the luxury GT look with this car. It's long and sleek...and it also lacks the squat, aggressive appearance of the sedan.

I'm starting to think that maybe the coupe is moving upmarket (could this be the "4 series" that we heard so much about a couple years ago?), while the sedan will stay where it is. Why? Probably to make way for the intro of a 1 series coupe.

I second that.

Sound very reasonable.

I don't think is going to be drastically different from these pics. These are definitely giving us an idea of what the car is going to look like. You never know these might be the real deal... For the record I'm not feeling it.

Actual video footage of the E92 Coupe narrated in German. Sorry if this has already been posted but I thought it was so cool I had to post!
