New 2020 BMW 4 Series leaks ahead of tomorrow's unveiling

[Chris100]

I would not say 0-60 in 7.5 is slow.

We will agree to disagree then,

Unlikely to bother anyone buying that model, as it’s more of a GT than a sports car now.

 

[Father Stack]

Lets be honest, nobody is buying a 420i for the 0-60 time

Saw one of these in blue and M-Sport guise yesterday. Not as offensive looking in the flesh as I thought it would be but certainly not a pretty car. Almost like Kia / Hyundai made a sports coupe

Yes, only that arguably looks better!

I always thought it was a pity they never launched them here. Cheap v6 rear wheel drive coupe would be nice. Yea I think that does look better

Seen a black one the other day, still not a fan

I still haven't seen a standard 4 series on the road, never mind an M3/4, surely that tells enough.

I was thinking that exact same thing last week

It's a beefy looking car, but the wheels do nothing for it either never mind the snout. I'm sure Litchfield will get massive power out of it though.

I was specing one up last night, didn't take me long to be over £86k. Shocking wheel options on it, didn't like any of them

Only seen one on the road, and one in Bavarian.

I didn't think the front end was as bad in the metal, but it's still not going to win any beauty competitions

Even if the grills were normal it would still be horrid. The nostrils, headlights, swage lines, door handle recesses, door mirrors and rear aches are awful imo.

Harris has that on test so at least we might get an honest review

I saw my 1st one a couple of weeks ago near Ballymena, they are massive, more like a 8 series really, wasn’t pleasant

Just looks underwhelming or something, the proportions on it's nearest competitor (the A5) are much better.

 

[Lyons]

Funny I was just thinking yesterday it would be interesting to see how this will affect the sales of the S/RS5.

On a side note, I do hate matte paint finishes.

M3 is nicer. Again.

 

[Father Stack]

The M4 looks absolutely horrible from any angle. The M3 is nice from the rear.

 

[Q.S Gav]

That blue M3 posted above is amazing.

I really like the red/burgendy M4 posted also.

 

[Shannonsir]

I'm definitely into that satin red on the M4 too, that's epic. I'd like to see more performance / sporty stuff across the market offered with these options, think of the time saved trying to get the best shine ...no need to worry about that..bitta fairy liquid and away ya go.

Satin paint is an absolute nightmare to look after. Needs ceramic coated or dead bugs etc stain the paint.

I've had matt bikes and they're harder to clean than gloss. The dirt gets ingrained instead of wiping off.

And there’s no buffing a scratch out either, I like the look of some of the Frozen finishes as BMW call them but wouldn’t have one myself

 

[NickR]

I personally like this although I think the dark colour helps the front.
