BMW F32 Coupe vs. E92 Coupe Test Prototypes - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Regarding the length do agree they're not that much different with the exception the F32 roof line appears to slope further to the rear similar to the F12. My hunch the final version of the F32 will look like a downsized 6 Series Coupe.

i think the E92 and F32 prototypes look very similar at this development stage. so its hard to say what it will look like, a smaller 6 series sounds good to me, either way its gonna be a beast.

Red Bread · 11-28-2011, 01:26 PM

Rear overhang looks very slightly better than the E92, which is certainly a positive, but still looks rather long.

In camo form the e92 is a much sleeker car.

wilstave · 11-28-2011, 02:13 PM

as usual, we'll never really know until it's finally unveiled....we can debate and opinionize all we want at this early stage, afterall that's what this forum is for, however we all know BMW will get it right in the end.

deshields · 11-28-2011, 02:29 PM

Very interesting. This does put things into perspective. It seems that there is no major size change between the e90 generation and the f30 generation

progression of the camouflage

VincentMorin · 11-28-2011, 03:10 PM

Looking good! Can't wait to see them unmasked!

stylish. · 11-28-2011, 03:16 PM

Back to the N55 topic... In terms of just a tune, I believe that both N54 and N55 are pretty much equal in terms of gains.

However when you start going beyond that (ie: stage 2 mods) N54 platform will wield you more gains!

Diver · 11-28-2011, 03:47 PM

Too early to say, really.

Agreed! I love the sleekness of the 6 and with the rear roofline's current silhouette, I think it'll end up that way. Almost how the 3 is a little 5. A 4 as a little 6?

BruinsBMW · 11-28-2011, 03:50 PM

So sad... How long did you wanted to sell this car...? Seems like almost 5months..? I would buy if if was le mans blue and 46000$ glws!

Ateam · 11-28-2011, 04:02 PM

wow I was not around the boards when the e92 was being spied but had no idea how damn horrendous that looked. Clearly the camo prototypes look nothing like the final results

swizzreese · 11-28-2011, 04:12 PM

I love speculating over speculation

e92miami · 11-28-2011, 04:13 PM

I'm seeing huge amounts of dot matrix on the new rear windows...yuck.

GOLFFRR · 11-28-2011, 05:21 PM

waiting for more reveal before i comment

keanu1 · 11-28-2011, 05:24 PM

they look similar! all i hope now is that they dont put the f30 or f12/f13 headlights!

esqu1re · 11-28-2011, 05:32 PM

Man, that prototype of the e9x looks horrible. I hope the production one doesn't look like it. ;-)

JRV · 11-28-2011, 05:44 PM

The F32 looks more proportionate as coupes go.....longer front and shorter rear starting from the rear side window. That e92 looks too even. The f32 has a nicer rear slope as well.

Seriously, it looks like complete garbage and yet turned out so beautiful.
