Is that a wee-bit of a dent in the passenger door or just a reflection?

dented yes - camo yes

The cars are still moderately camo'd. You'll have to montage the intentionally hidden lines together to form the basic shape. Any p-shop masters out there?

Hard to say with all that camo. I'd like to see what the front end really looks like.

Overall, the car looks pretty fat. That's with an F not a PH. As in large and heavy. Looks like it should be a 5 series, not a 3.

The new 3-series might not be beautiful, but it will be massively successful!

At least the trunk looks normal

Looking forward to seeing it without the camo. I bet it turns out alright.

The rear quarter panel line reminded me of an Impala...
With all that tape it's kind of hard to tell what it really looks like,
but I think it's going to look real good. :smile:

Sort of reminded me of the SAAB 9-3 Aero..but not sure.

Looks good. I'd expect the 3er to be the most conservative of all the recent BMWs.
