Are there ANY photos of this car from the back knocking around ? Or is there not a camera lens invented that's up to that level of ugliness ?
I don't know what 'type' of black my colleague's 123D is.
From the look of that lorry in front its a very blocked in BMW .... your colleague's not hoping for a quick Friday getaway ?
That for me ( with all the money thrown at it ) is stunning , give it the 135i engaine and it'll be some drive to match the looks IMHO.
Hopefully everyone will think there ugly and prices will sink like a stone.....and i'll collect.

...and as it doesn't come as standard, the cost of the additional options doesn't get factored into residual prices generally, so you get stung for them come re-sale.Thats it , if it looked like that out of the factory with a decent interior spec for 34k i'd find the money ( some how ) , but it doesn't,
Saw a convertible 118i today (08 plate). That genuinely looked like a creation of Dr Frankenstein.
I saw an A3 cab today (roof down) it looked awful.
Maybe Audi and BMW are having a competition.............
One thing I would add about BMW black.
If mine is anything to go by (Black Sapphire metallic), it is incredibly easily marked by bird crap.
I'm talking minutes, and you've a very hard to remove matt mark on the paint.
Maybe you were looking at a different black though.

Don't forget, the 3 series is being facelifted for September. LED lights, new [245BHP] diesel, bigger LCD screen, 7 speed dual clutch option, etc, etc, etc...!
Should have a go in a 335D this w/e hopefully. Had enough of Audis and their build quality/problems!!!

Bear in mind the new 3 series saloon will look like this: This is the range topping 335i as well
A bit more information has filtered through on the facelift, most notably that the 330d will have 245bhp, 383 lb/ft and 153g CO2, plus the 320d, 325i, 330i, 330d and 335i will all be available with the xDrive 4wd system. Will be interested to see whether we get the 4wd option in the UK.

OK, it's an M3, but you get the drift...I am edging towards Alpine White with black leather. I need to see one in the flesh but it looks great on the M-Sport from what i've seen.
Well done, you've managed to find a photo of one in a godawful colour, with godawful little wheels.
Now go find one in a decent colour, with decent wheels, and see if you still get the "Yeeeuch" reaction you're so clearly looking for.:icon_thumright:
I wonder if I could retrofit those LED back lights to my D3...
Obviously these are the only pictures available daft lad, and seeing as though BMW would want to give the best impression possible I don't know why they've picked such a mundane colour and 17" alloys.
P.S. I don't agree the 3 series coupe is a 'big' car. Stand it next to an A5 and it's actually very nimble and sleek looking. It's smaller than an A4 anyway.
Maybe , but it's still alot bigger than the S3/A3/TT which we drive at the moment , so it's a " big car "

BMW's rock. I have a 335i as well.
