In regards to the 4 Series,  that interior, though for the interior to look like that, it'll probably be a $5,000 premium  thanks BMW.

Love it, looks 100 times nicer than the A5 which imo is looking dated. And I do like the direction BMW is going in terms of styling; the car I'm waiting for is the new 7 series in 2015 and according to all the rumors should be a beast of a car.

Very nice. Love everything about it except that my car is now obsolete.
Edit to add comparison pics.

I really like the side profile except for the vent on the side but it'll grow on me.
The front and rear are nice except I wish it was a bit more differentiated from the sedan.
Interior is awesome. I love the steering wheel on the m-sport version.

Holy fuck the M4 looks amazing. Never thought I'd see another BMW top the E92 (IMO)

Looks like a 6 series. I like e90/92s but they are just so big, and clearly they will keep getting bigger. The lines on the M are very nice though, but it wouldn't be a car for me. Thats coming from someone that is such an irrational m3 fanboi.

Nice looking 4 series.
But, they need to differentiate the 4 from the 3 a little bit more.
And, the front hood line really does not look good.
Otherwise, side and front profiles are almost bang on good.
Not sure if the side vents are functional.
If the vents are just for looks... then big thumbs down.
The headlights and DRLs look great except the same overall design is used throughout the entire BMW line.
But, all in all, the new 4 series is a winner.
I'm sure BMW has done a lot of test marketing to make sure the performance and looks will increase BMW sales.
I believe the new M4 will be a bi-turbo or supercharged V6, which is a big change from the current NA V8.
I love NA engines which gives immediate throttle response when you press the pedal.
Turbo/Supercharged engines don't give you that immediate feel and the raw visceral exhaust noise in NA V8s.
But, the new engine will give the new M4 more HP, and more torque, so it is a give and take thing.
I can't wait for the first reviews to show up.
I'm sure the new 4 and M4 will be winners.

The 4 series is a 3 series coupe.
The point is they're the same car, with 2 less doors. Perfect example of these new numbering systems from bmw being stupid.

Just wish the coupe and the sedan had more different styling cues.

They never really have. Its not a financially viable way to design, test, develop and manufacture 2 completely different cars to fill the exact same spot in the lineup. Compare all of the 3 series of the past (or most cars for that matter) and you can see its the same car with a couple different body parts and some more doors.

+1. The side vent looks out of the place on this car. Overall, it's a beautiful design.
