I am thankful these are just rendered images... they are TOO TAME. And I really am looking at purchasing either the M2 or M3 in 2014. It needs to be AGGRESSIVE and perform (period). These look timid and it doesn't inspire the aggressive racing heritage we've all come to know and love with M's of past... let's go to the mall instead...

When is this going to come out? 2012 as a 2013 model or 2013 as a 2014 model?

I'm looking at buying a 135 new right now and would hate for it to be the old model in 12months.

Like to look of the blue one too!!!

+1

These renders aren't really of M2, though. Maybe 135i-esque. Cant wait to see what M2 looks like. I'm sure everyone who missed the 1M is thinking that they won't miss it this time.

Origins for today's Genes : Autobild Imagines the BMW CS Hommage.

Origins for today's Genes : Autobild Imagines the BMW CS Hommage.



We all know that when a new BMW arrives, in some way or another we hear that inspiration comes from the past as well as the present and future.
BMW have a rich archive of iconic vehicles and especially no such vehicle can be definitive as the classic BMW CS/CSi and CSL models.

Whether they cruised along boulevards or tore up race tracks in areodynamics that earned the term "Batmobile" as a historic nod to the iconic crime fighter.
The CS/CSi and CSL earn a rightful place as an iconic BMW.

At BMW aswell as thinking about the future , there is also a connection to the past. Especially with the "What if?" series of Hommage concepts that do their best to link today's mobility needs to the iconic appearances of the past.
Such Hommages such as the BMW M1 , BMW MM and the latest BMW 328 Hommage.

Autobild in a part of their own "What if?" series in which classics are re-invented apply this thinking to the BMW CS to debate the question "What if?"
Of course BMW will continue to ask "What if?" with both the CS/CSi/CSL and the classic 2002 earmarked for future Hommage's. The 2002 will be the lead-in car for the all new 2er Coupe. A car that inherits some of the design thinking of the original 2002 as it is no longer a 1er.

Using this image as a base (but not the final car) and working to incorporate typical BMW design cues re-interpreted with fresh ideas and a more sporty looking profile than the 1er , unique headlights and taillights that seperate the 2er from the 1er.

I'm in the exact same boat as you Giancarlo. Supposedly current 1 coupe production ends next June, so would that mean the new 2 coupe around September next year? (1 year after the hatch becomes publicly available)

If it moves into 2013, then surely its getting too close to the release of the 4-series coupe.

I think the problem is that if you're interested in BMW's smaller offerings, its a bad time to be buying.

Bimmerpost still says:

http://www.bimmerpost.com/future-bmw/

mid 2012 for the F22 and mid 2013 for the F32. However, I have been skeptical about lately this give that - apparently anyway - the E92 is ending production after the 2012 MY which halts mid next year. Then again, maybe there will end up being a 2013 MY for the E92. It is hard to say. Also, I think the E82 is facing that same timeline right now as well, and yet clearly both replacements won't drop at the same time. However, F20 and F30 are less than a year apart (official debuts are FrankFurt and Geneva respectively), so perhaps F22 and F32 will be only a few months apart as well.

Very promising! A 1974 2002 is what made me fall in love with BMW.

This is so special, but I know it will not happen, it will have slant headlights like in the illustration.
