E90 facelift

[Miles]

Due for Frankfurt Motorshow Oct this year.

 

The nose look like a hybrid of E46 and E92 coupe.

Also reportedly, the interior will be refreshed and engine range improved.

 

Is it enough to beat the B8 A4 and W204 C-class?

suddenly the side looks so e46-ish....

[Friendstar]

rear still as ugly.

Hi

 

In my personal opinion, if it is still coming from South Africa, then it will never beat :)

[Miketow]

I think the nose only resembles the E46 b/c of that "blacktape" around the headlights - take it out- still looks the same as the current E90....dont see many dramatic changes - I could be wrong

[Miketow]

Dude, when it stops coming our of South Africa - It will be coming out of China.

[Stuka]

Getting sleek.

[Yaloryalor]

Sorry I cant tell wat are the changes?

[Mcfguy]

look like bonnet got a bulge to me.

there is nothing major lah, just facelift nia. The most obvious is the kidney front grille lor, which look like follow E92 coupe(nicer to me) n losing that guppy-fish mouth grille.

 

size wise it doesnt get slimmer.

E90 always looks ugly to me, so is this one

 

the previous E46 was so much nicer

 

i think the only good looking E90 is the 335 and M3 because they have got different headlights and taillights

The best deisgn was still the E39...IMO. Sleek, Executive and damn chio...

 

Really a timeless design and still looks good on the roads today..I miss mine

 

Which is why I changed to sth totally different....the E60 does not really give me that WOW appeal

yea...too small and cheapo look for a BMW.

 

they should do something like C5

 

 

 

[Beanoyip]

Looks like Lexus GS300.

[Miles]

yup i think the new C5's rear look like Lexus too... front is typical Citroen.

 

To me, the classic everlasting design of modern car is the E39, Audi A3 mk1 and the original Alfa 156.

[En0203]

eh but i prefer E46 over E39

 

anyway, ur current ride definitely got WOW factor, and handles like a dream too

 

i wonder when can i afford something good

BMW making big mistake with this bestselling model of theirs. Still ugly.

 

Instead of spending money on facelift, BMW should have slapped on a supercharger or turbocharger to their inline 4 plus improve the transmission. If not, how to beat their main competitors Merc and Audi? The 3er handling already top notch, all they gotta do now is supercharge it! Engine capacity is larger than C180K and A4, if they supercharge or turbo it and sell at same price, it will confirm outsell their competitors.
