    The 428i coupe is the new E30. Bet it will become a classic.

    Nice car, but the silver color makes it look so boring!
    Even the silver 458 Italia in the background in 3:40 looks boring.

    cooley forgot to mention how the trunk area is different from a 3 series since it opens like a hatch and the trunk connects to the back seats for longer loads and the 4 series also comes as a "grand coupe" meaning it's no longer a coupe it's a 4 door. I would like to know if it comes with any stronger engines.

    I have a 328xi 2011 and I test drove the 2016 428i and honestly with no bias. To me BMW is marketing these cars as more efficient etc etc but in reality they are a cheaper build and a higher profit margin for BMW.
    It's cheaper to produce 4 cylinder engines and just slap on a turbo than to produce a naturally aspirated 6 cylinder.
    Driving the 428 felt wavy and underpowered. I even drove the m235 which had good power but felt a little too small and boxy. Kinda go cart like.
    I am sticking with my 328 for now. Maybe the will release something that looks better in design and performance.

    The outgoing e92 3 series coupe is much better looking in the front end. I love my 335i so much. The new 4 series is still cool, though.

    • @MatthewMaok
      @MatthewMaok 7 лет назад +2

      n0deification it's just BMW following the law in order to bring their car here. Either you have the reflector there or it goes inside your headlight on the side turn signal with that amber. Some coupe owners just change out the reflector to a body colored one because the amber reflector isn't regulated.

    My 2015 428l is leaking oil at 29k miles. Lover pan gasket is leaking oil and oil filter housing gasket is leaking oil too. My warranty expired a month ago, and I got bill at BMW's dealership $2200
    This is common issue with 328 and 428 oil gaskets failing after some time. Buy extended warranty or stay away from this car.

      I have over 80,000 on my 2014 328i and don't have that issue, or, for that matter many issues. MMI head unit crashed, but replaced aftermarket vs dealer, and did timing chain replace ahead of Class Action Suit, and compensation from BMW is pending. Otherwise, just normal stuff.

    • @Garf2O
      @Garf2O Год назад

      @@fldon2306 youd think at this point BMW would have fixed the gasket issues permenantly with the new cars, because its been a problem since the 90s at least, and they wonder why people end up going with whatever japanese/korean brand alternatives instead for the pricepoint even though im sure most people would rather have a BMW, but they know its a pain to fix so it drives them away.

      428i's are NOT twin turbo they have a twin scroll single turbo. Meaning it spools faster than a regular turbo. The engine code is BMW N20.
      "The N20 features a twin-scroll turbocharger, double-VANOS (variable valve timing), Valvetronic (variable valve lift), direct injection, automatic stop-start[2] and an electric water pump."

    • @Garf2O

    • @MrLalasd

      The m235i is the best option. The new 435i is like a 6 series now.

    • @mercedescl
      @mercedescl 10 лет назад +3

      That's because they want to sell GT, Tourer, Convertible, Coupe, Gran Coupe, and good old sedan. 6 body styles in one "series" are too confusing for developing markets: aka Russia, China, and India.
