Sell / trade F30, get F32 ?

Just thinking aloud.

What differences are there between the 3er and 4er besides doors? (And slightly wider , shorter) and looks (love the air breather)

Is a 3er with M sport suspension (10mm lower) the same as standard 4? There's a m sport suspension option on the 4 too, does that lower it even further ?

Trying to work out if the cooler looks can justify all the costs , deprecation of the 3 Etc ..

Powerful aesthetics and sporting dynamism characterise the new BMW 4 Series Coupé. Add to that a unique driving sensation thanks to the low centre of gravity, near 50:50 weight distribution, high body stiffness and efficient engines with TwinPower Turbo technology. The new Sport, Modern and Luxury models together with the SE and M Sport mean numerous options when personalising the new BMW 4 Series Coupé, whilst standard equipment is significantly increased and includes Xenon headlights, Dakota leather upholstery, Front seat heating, Servotronic and front and rear Park Distance Control. One highlight is the unique new Adaptive LED headlights which features LED indicators, front foglights and tilt/swivel functionality. The innovative Air Breathers not only set an exciting design accent but also improve aerodynamics and efficiency. Ensuring even more driving pleasure are the eight-speed Sport automatic transmission, which now features Launch Control and the latest BMW ConnectedDrive driver assistance systems such as the full-colour BMW Head-up Display.

Pretty sure the ride heights are the same because they still offer SE, luxury etc.

I would say not much point unless you go for a convertible, if insurance costs allow. Size wise the 4 is slightly bigger so I don't see the point in loosing 2 doors if the car is just as big
