I just picked up April's issue of French L'Automobile where they're showing some first renderings of future 2012 3-series.
I don't know if this was circulating before ?
If so, sorry for the repost, but I thought it's worth to share with you guys

(sorry for the awful quality; scanner doesn't cooperate anymore, so I had to take photos..... )

Hum, not sure I like the front or not. What's up with the LED strip like Porsches and Benz Will have to see it without the license plate.

I do like the rear though... much better than current 3 sedans.

The front looks like it has indigestion.
