New G30 spotted in New Jersey!!

So my wife is out with her friends for lunch and she sees this car with the crazy graphics. After looking at it, she mentioned that it looks like a BMW. Her friend was like no way it probably a Toyota. She sends me a picture and I'm like HOLY SHIT!! Go up to it and take as many pictures as you can. The car was occupied and so my wife kindly asked if she can take a picture. Of course the driver said no while I was on the other line listening in. She's all nervous and asked me if she was going to get in trouble. I said no just snap away as he drives off. I told her she is going to be famous in the BMW forum today lol

Cool, like this one doesn't have the m-sport package. And you can really see the side lines when the car was in the shade.

So I'm not sure what it is, but these photos seem the most "life-like" to me so far, and have made me REALLY excited to see to final product!

The stance looks good, the lights look good for once.. spectacular job by your wife!

You are correct!

She was all proud of herself last night when she got home lol. By no means is my wife a car gal. Put the key in the ignition and knows how to fill the tank. I asked her why was she so sure it was a BMW and she said it was the rims lol!

The force is strong with this one lol...

But also (I'm guessing) because it resembles your car. Plus it has that typical BMW look, can't mistake it for anything else out there.

I like that it appears to be evolution on current rather than drastic re-design, I always admired BMW for that.

Yeah, very cool ...those buildings in the background are unmistakably RiverTrace @ Port Imperial.

I used to work in Lincoln Harbor and over the years one or two co-workers had mentioned seeing a car described as "graphically crazy". 'Course, I never had the opportunity to catch any camo'ed cars there, but quite a few times on the opposite side of the GS Parkway when passing the Exit for BMWNA.

Speaking of which, they are likely now at the stage where they are loaning pre-production G30 models out to their employees to test out and report back. So that's likely why this guy wouldn't take kindly to any pics.

I say we stalk the neighborhood, find out where he lives, then wear stockings over our faces and rush him as he gets into the car. Big photo spread on all the forums and biggest joy ride of our lives. (LOL... ..J/K)
