Oh, and here is a chop of it by someone from carspyshots.net. He is usually pretty accurate





I sure as hell hope it looks like that chop....

Personally I like both the E46 and the new E92. You can't please everybody, people WILL find something to complain about and that's why there are aftermarket parts. I just want to see the 4.0L V-8 they are doing and how it will top the 335i's twin turbo inline 6.

Hussein makes some awesome work. He regularly does concept photos and always does an excellent job.

My guess though is that when aftermarket companies get their hands on the 335i TT, it'll be an absolutely amazing engine

The new 3 bodystyle doesn't look like a 3-series to me, it looks more like a 5. It's just so freaking big.

These things are getting kind of boring—lots of size and weight and luxury and power. I hope it drives like a proper car still and isn't all soft and disconnected-feeling.

So when is the freakin 1-series coming? Drop an L-6 TT into one of those bad boys...

Better rims? Aren't those BBS LM's? If so I don't think you can get better wheels.

the prototype does look like ass, but i'm sure the actual finished product will look great... however, i do think it will be hard to top the current m3 we have.
