BMW 2 Series Coupe Shows Sleeker Form and We Show You Colors and Wheels Options

As our newest photos show, the 2 Series Coupe (F22) sure has grown up from the current 1 Series Coupe (E82). The 3.1 inch gain in overall length and 1.2 inch longer wheelbase (see dimension/specs comparisons) appears to come mostly in the front, elongating the front end and giving the F22 a sleeker look overall. Adding to this effect is the less bulbous greenhouse which features a more raked window and a rear roofline that has been elongated and joins the trunk on a more subtle angle than on the E82.

Production on the 2 Series begins next month and it will have its public auto show debut at the Detroit auto show in mid-January.

The 2 Series Coupe will be officially revealed imminently, so stay tuned. Here are the newest photos, together with the previously revealing M235i pics and interior spy photos.
