No

the coupe only seats two in the back (among many other differences)

The front is virtually identical except for the B-Pillar being further back and the seatbelt assister.

The back is competely different since the coupe is a 2+2 and has a full center console for the rear passengers as well.

thats kinda what i figured. is the rear legroom and headroom the same?
how is the entry to the rear in the coupes? i seen the coupes have a switch on the side of the seat. do you just push the button and the seat moves forward on its own?

The coupe has lots of legroom due to how the backseat tilts at a slight angle. For adults, getting into the rear seat awkward (same for most coupes) but plenty of room once back there.

Im about 6'2'' and I fit fine in the back seats of the coupe. Getting in isn't too difficult either. There is a handle that tilts the front seat forward, then a switch that actually moves it forward and back along its horizontal access.

+1 not bad in the backseat at all....according to my passengers.

I was looking at a new 328i coupe yesterday.
I was very impressed, except when I pulled down rear arm rest and there was a vertical piece of cardboard!!! Or a thin sheet of plain grey plastic resembling cardboard.
I was ready to deal, but this was a complete turn-off. :eek:
Other than gluing on a scrap piece of leather or flocking it, what do you folks think????
