I think it looks great,
a bit impractical perhaps but it never hurt coupes to be impractical. Reminds me of the Audi Steppenwolf concept of a few years back.

The new 3 series looks angry:
The new 3 series looks angry: "get out of my way, don't you know I'm running late." I would feel uncomfortable if I sighted the new 3 in my rearview mirror and would either move out of the way or rush to the nearest BMW dealer and buy my own king of the road. This car certainly has far more character than its predecessor. I must congratulate BMW Design in conjuring an imaginative new look.
I personally would go for the 335i because of the smoother engine. The opulence of driving is not to be compromised!
Velocity is poetry in motion. Steve Johnson.
