435i M-sport spotted at BMW Palm Springs

slpymnky · 08-27-2013, 06:43 PM

I was just in Palm Springs for work and my hotel was right across the street from the BMW dealership. Naturally, I had to stop in and take a look at what they had.

I immediately noticed a Red/Black 435i M-Sport parked out front. It had no plates and was quite dirty. I asked the sales person who approached me about it. He said BMWNA had the car out there for a commercial shoot and had just finished and that the car was waiting to be picked up. I asked if he drove it and he said no one was allowed to. That crushed any of my hopes of getting to take it for a spin. Sigh.

Anyways, thought I'd share. I really want one, especially now because it looks amazing in person.

yeah this one was driven by Nate over the weekend and now being shipped to NJ for press driving.

check it out on bmwna facebook page as well as my thread on driving this car for 48 hours.

Nice coupe... so sad that I can't have a 2 door for another 15 years~~

ybbiz34 · 08-27-2013, 07:20 PM

The M Sport 435i really looks outstanding.

Raja is correct. This was my 4-series to flog for my #un4gettable weekend!

is it just me or does it look a lot longer in pictures. I know its a bit longer than the e92, but the f32 is looking a bit more aggressive=)

btbossman · 08-28-2013, 05:46 PM

Mmm, that second pic looks great. I love it.

naterater · 08-29-2013, 07:11 PM

The car is amazing looking in person! Super sleek!

IM2C · 08-30-2013, 07:09 PM

No front pic?

killershark · 08-31-2013, 09:46 AM

Weirdly, the 435i looks a lot better in unedited pictures. The official press shots by BMW themselves made the car look kind of awkward in certain places because of the camera angles they used. Nice find OP!

teen335 · 09-02-2013, 07:32 AM

That's a good looking car

Hey Nate... you're a lucky man. Are those the std M wheels or the 19s?

IM2C · 10-13-2013, 03:04 AM

Nate, it would be awesome if you could post a review with a couple of hundred pics,

Nope! I don't like the fastback shape at all. I'm pro-F30/F80 this time around.
