I like it. The front is super sexy. Has a bit of the 8 series feel, probably because of the way its a little elongated and curved.

Not crazy about the back though. Seems to 5 series'ish

Overall, I'm happy with it. Wasn't a huge fan of the previous version.

As often happens with me and BMW's, I initially don't love the styling but it grows on me, until I really love it :)

This one looks good!
 
Watched the launch streaming this afternoon, really like the look of the car (I think the new 1 series and 5 series warmed us up to this look). Definite improvement over the E90 and the interior is great.

Will definitely be looking at one once production has run a bit (2013ish).
 
Beautiful...BMW is improving since Bangle's departure (wonder where he is working now?)
 
I like the range and the fact that the 2 litre comes turboed. The 320 e90 was very underpowered, but was an amazing drive. Would love to get myself one of the 320s when they get slightly second hand late next year.
 
Interior looks sick to - nice heads up display.

He quit in 2009 to go and run his own design business (Chris Bangle & Associates), he was replaced by Adrian van Hooydonk, who seems to have a much better style and direction than Bangle.

I like it, but the changes should have been more radical.

Thats said almost everytime a big manufacturer releases the new model of their bread and butter.... they just can't take that risk on the model that makes up the majority of their sales.

Look at the next version of the Golf, its an evolution of the styling not a revolution. Even the Audi, and Mercedes are the same really.
 
Looks good, the front reminds me of a Z4 at certain angles. Even a bit of the Evo10 with the thinner lights.

Definetely an improvement on the E90
 
def an improvement on the E90, and I like how they integrated some of the E92 styling... :) on the whole, very impressed... and looking forard to the M version...
 
Looks good but BMW needs to drop the run-flat tyres and give us a proper spare. I have a feeling that they've cheaped out on the build cost for the new 3
