It is not. Fascia around headlights (like scott said: near the grille it curves up like on 3er coupe) is different. So is bumper & air intake design . Also according to my source the grille will be slightly different as well. Mind that the car is still heavily camoed on some parts!

Also rear is different - different rearlight design & graphics. And also side skirt (rocker panel is different - with longer crease separating two concave surfaces: to make the coupe / cabrio visually longer & sleeker).

But like I said: there will be slight but visual difference - especially due heavy parts sharing: to make the E87-platfor line as profitable as possible.


PS: wait till FEP E88 cabrio spy pics emerges - with only tape on. There the rear & front details are more clearly seen since wearing tape or bra only (but no plastic clading).
