a couple of days ago I saw new e90 (it had NJ plates and black tape covering some of the new exterior face-lift elements)

1st impression:
+'s:
a. the color was dark red or cherry red which i don't think an available option now (not my choice of color but just another add-on to yuor options)
b. front grill, headlights, and hood look amazing... it gives that aggressive look back to 3 series
c. side skirt also look a lot better than on current models

-'s:
d. side mirrors - yak... look huge and ugly.... i like my sporty ones on 06 e90 better
e. rear lights - also yak (they look better when u close but once u step back from the car it's a yak)

overall, imho, still a good looking car and still the best handling sedan in its class, hopefully... i can see pple modding the side mirrors to pre-09 style..... i couldnt see interior differences as the car jast passed me on the street (i was walking) but i had enough time to take a good glimpse and provide my review here....

anyone else seen it alive?
