When they're unveiling a brand new model like this, manufacturers usually spark up their word-processors and churn out a standard fluff-piece, using the handy search-and-replace function to insert the name of the model in question. Out goes "BMW 3 Series Coupe," plonk in "new BMW 4 Series Coupe." Done.
You know the usual: "Don't assume this is just a coupe version of the 3 Series sedan… yadda yadda… No, it's a brand new model that's integral to BMW's sporting heritage… yadda yadda… conceived and engineered separately… yadda yadda… long-term separate model-line strategy… yadda yadda… new and exciting beginning…"
And in essence, that's exactly what BMW has done with the new F30 3 Series sedan-based F32 4 Series Coupe. Just that this time, the marketing speak isn't mere words that can't be backed up, as the newborn walks the talk too. Well, sort of.
This is, in most respects, a car that promises to be all things to all men. It's the great BMW 3 Series but more. Sexier, more emotionally appealing, better to drive, the whole lot. So, is it really?
