hi guys! I founds some pics, that compare the e90 and the e92 so that you can see the differences on one view.

[longtran]

nice....now can you find me a mtech side skirt versus the stock side skirt?

[cannonspike22]

e92 has 5 series front + 7 series tail lights
thats very original

Coupe is better looking from the pictures, but I really want to see one in real life.

[Intuition]

Um.... I don't want to be a devil's advocate here, and I do like the coupe, but I honestly believe the sedan is much more agressive looking.

It has a scowl in the headlights and grill. The coupe almost has a similar scowl but the sedan looks like its brows are furrowed.

Ok, nuff of that. Both are really nice in anycase. More choices are better then less eh?

Man the coupe looks better all the time. E92 > E90 in design. Especially the rear.

[aem]

e92's looks more classy and expensive than e90.

[hkj]

sedan+1... both front and rear.

Although I do like the dual exhaust look of the coupe.

both look very nice but i do like the front of the e 90 more than the e 92. the back tail light ! yeah e92 looks like 7 yuk !! not my type . the stock tail light of the e90 is shitty as well !! i like the black lines . enough . in the end i like both

[MIKEYMIKE]

The E92 rocks.

[davinet78]

i still prefer the e90

[Shaveli]

coupe is MUCH better than the sedan, i hate the back of the sedan

[b311lee]

i honestly cant get used to the e92, i think the rear is what kills me, its just squished in my opinion...god i hope the m3 looks 100% better!

[tctic]

Looks like the 3 and the 5 combined together in the front. (Maybe they had this in mind when it was planned to be called the 4 series)

for sure

here you go

[lhoboy8]

I love the looks of the e90. But the E92 looks slightly better in my opinion - especially the headlights. That, and I'm just a sucker for coupes.

[matze328]

I think the difference between stock and M-Sport side skirts is more obvious on a silver car:

The E92 looks even more like the 5 series in the front...

I actually agree with you that (without having yet seen the coupe in real life) the sedan looks far more aggressive than the coupe. In the metal, the front of the sedan is especially sporty.

Where the coupe seems to win is in the cohesiveness of design and in overall elegance. To me, the sedan seems styled (even a bit fussily so, especially in the rear), while the coupe feels designed. There are little to none of those distracting "huh!?" moments looking at the coupe that have plaqued BMW's of the Bangle era. The Z4 refresh, along with the 3 coupe, are the first modern BMW's to embody the fresh new design language without the overt strangeness of the 5 and 7.

The way I see it, the sedan maintains the traditional 3 series "bulldog" stance while the coupe introduces a new element of elegance more in line with the 6 and 7 while also being more overtly sporty than either.

It'll be an interesting time!

Beyond the kidneys, I don't see the overt resemblance. Where do you see the 5 influence?

Look at the hood and bumper creases.

[matze328]

I wish the coupe front wouln´t look so friendly. I like the aggressive looking e90 front
