WOOOO Clear pics of E93 folding hardtop convertible!

Jason · 11-29-2005, 01:41 PM

Thanks for the find striki!

YYimports · 11-29-2005, 01:59 PM

Very sleek looking without the B-pillar. Back seems a tad long tho, but I guess that's to be expected.

LEDZEP · 11-29-2005, 02:17 PM

Good find! Now it's starting to be worth looking at.

06graphite · 11-29-2005, 02:30 PM

NICE! Now I just have to convince my wife that we should trade in the SUV for a convertable.

SCA · 11-29-2005, 02:32 PM

The verdict it still out for me.

vladinecko · 11-29-2005, 02:38 PM

i'll be laughing so hard if the real E92 ends up looking completely different than all these "spy" shots. for my sakes, this could very well be a spy shot of a new volkswagen

abc · 11-29-2005, 02:49 PM

is there anyone in the car? who's the spy photographer... couldn't he run up to the car and take even better pictures or just quickly 'undress' the car... would he feel 'dirty' in doing so, snapping pictures as well...

longtran · 11-29-2005, 03:11 PM

if they really have the hardtop available i am trading my car in for it.

There is no mistaking that car for anything other than an E9x

Intuition · 11-29-2005, 05:29 PM

I think people are expecting a huge difference between the sedan and the coupe/cabrio. I think it will have same head/tail lights. Maybe a different bumper detail but in general the same car with possibly a shorter wheel base..

ON325i · 11-29-2005, 05:31 PM

Thanks to a google of "Christa Lehmann"
There are this incredible clear view of the front !!!!!

Can someone somehow reference the pics to here, i'm not able to that right now, thanks much!!!

this is incredible!!

Jason · 11-29-2005, 05:46 PM

Here's the front from an older spyshot.

longtran · 11-29-2005, 05:47 PM

looking good.

The front is just photoshoped on this one... it won't look like this at all...

Saosin17 · 11-29-2005, 05:52 PM

I hope the front end has more character than that. Our sedans have that very aggressive headlight that i absolutely love, it feels liek im goign into battle or something. That image makes the coupe headlight look like that of the old is300

longtran · 11-29-2005, 06:20 PM

here is the shot before it was photoshop.

I doubt they will have the same headlights, not sure about the tail ights though.

Mark · 11-29-2005, 09:26 PM

WOW ! this car is looking more and more desirable every day, you can really tell how sporty the design of this car is already, wait till they fit it with even bigger wheels for the sports package version, its going to really be stunning.

:rocks:

But the one thing I don't like about that car is the chrome window trim, with the chome, the joints for the folding roof really stand out alot. WIth black window trim it wouldnt be as obvious and the roof would look more and more like 1-piece.

E90-4life · 11-29-2005, 09:32 PM

Best looking CC I've ever seen! BMW did an uber job @ designing the roof, especially incorporating the Holfmiester kink at the C pillar, that's killer!

Xens · 11-29-2005, 09:42 PM

Man! It looks really good ............. dammit.
