Those are great observations Icedragon.
Massive block-like front end and detailed lower side trim seem to be part of BMW's upcoming design dna for the 2-er....
the sort of treatment we've come to expect in the "M" series.
I'm looking also for sharper crease lines along the upper shoulder ala the 3-er coupe which you've pictured.
I think the cgi Harold uses for the site's webpage is a pretty accurate representation of what we'll see.
No doubt there are or were numerous versions of the 2-er under consideration. But by now, the die has literally been cast.
We should be seeing some images soon, I would imagine, of the real thing.
It'll be very interesting to see if BMW gives us a mild design interpretation that emphasizes smooth long surfaces
(which seems to be the trend of late vis-a-vis the 3-er coupe),
or they release something that is more balls-out adventurous.
Me, I think BMW is holding back a little too much-my guess is that the more expensive niche vehicles will carry the chancier designs.
