Just out of curiosity, are you employed by BMW or a supplier? @lemetier

I'm not looking for specifics (obviously, just look at my predicament), but I am curious from where you draw your information.

Yes
Does it have these odd looking 3 series mirrors?
To be extra critical, the prototypes nor the production cars have ā€œ3 Seriesā€ exterior mirrors. What they have are specific door A triangle bases combined with supplier designed covers, side indicators, and mirror glass.

Yeah I type fast. :p

Can you at least say if it looked like this?
Kinda. Most of the renderings over the past year fall into the ā€œlooks like thisā€ category but most of them fail at the small details. Itā€™s those that always have the most significant visual impact.

At least buy me dinner before trying the fingerbang.

Jokes aside, I wear many hats and usually a half dozen at a time. Independent Contractor is the safe term along with Former Tier 1 Supplier Managing Member. I can get away with a little more when it comes to the US/Euro crowd, but you Toyota fans would be able to figure it out with nothing more than one word if I slipped up.

Maybe I should rephrase it. Do they look more boxy like the ones on the F10, or more round like the ones on the E89?

More boxy as you call it. The ovoid shape of the E89 wouldnā€™t meet todayā€™s regulatory field of vision requirements without exceeding the vehicle width limitations while extended. The ā€œ29ā€™sā€ are very wide and have rather tall hips, which means the mirrors have to be on rather lengthy arms to begin with.

Better do a rhyme, don't waste our time

Charge it, point it, zoom it, press it,
Snap it, work it, quick, erase it,
Write it, cut it, paste it, save it,
Load it, check it, quick, rewrite it
Plug it, play it, burn it, rip it,
Drag and drop it, zip, unzip it,
Lock it, fill it, curl it, find it,
View it, code it, jam, unlock it
Surf it, scroll it, pose it, click it
Cross it, crack it, twitch, update it,
Name it, read it, tune it, print it,
Scan it, send it, fax, rename it,
Touch it, bring it, pay it, watch it,
Turn it, leave it, stop, format it.
