To everyone who doesn't like BMWs new designs, here's an idea, DON'T BUY ONE.
OR MAKE MORE MONEY SO YOU CAN BUY A PORSCHE.
And what's all this bashing on Chinese this or that. What the duck does the Chinese have to do with it?
IT'S DESIGNED BY GERMANS AND ASSEMBLED BY MEXICANS.
OH AND HYUNDAI IS DUCKING KOREAN MANUFACTURER.
YOU STUPID, IGNORANT, UNDEREDUCATED OLD GEEZERS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU'RE EVEN BUYING FOREIGN, SUPPORT CADILLAC/LINCOLN.
DUCKING LOSERS.

it's funny how many people are trying to convince themselves that will grow,in black will look better.
It's a bad looking car as the the G80/2 maybe even worse

bad looking,heavier,a big tv instead of a nice cluster and for sure is going to be more expensive

What a joke

The UK chose violence this morning. Lot's of anger before a single official picture has been released.

Let's relax and wait and see.

I'm glad everyone hates the design so much. It should make it easier for me to buy one.

One probably should not discern the G87 solely based upon its looks, especially without driving it. Is that not what matters the most? How it drives?

100% agree on the drive characteristics...BUT...everyone wants to be inspired.. - that feeling you get when you're waking away from your car and look back at it and think, 'thats one hot looking car!' For me personally, I need that feeling to be there when buying a sports car- along with its performance of course.

100% the reason I'm not going with the Emira. As beautiful as that car is, the performance isn't going to match the G87

Maybe they should have widened the gloss black centre piece in the front bumper

To me how it looks matter,is not a laptop or a washing machine where looks comes after

I understand you at interested about how it drives,I could be interested too if was a decent object
Btw you'll find out how it drives when is too late,when you already signed a contract

Not only the looks is telling me is not with my money,I already gave you the list

And yes, you better believe the fugazi side vent with the "M2" embossment is going to make a comeback in the CS/CSL or maybe even the M Performance option - for a cost, obviously.

I have sneaking suspicion that BMW is going to milk M2 owners for all that it's worth by nickel and dime them for every single cool option, where the base model will be more spartan this time around and you have to pay up to get it right.

You be they'll milk the G87. Remember all the variants of the F87?

2016 - M2
2017 - M2 Performance Edition
2018 - M2 LCI

2019 - M2 Competition

Might as well milk for all it is worth! As the majority of us are aware, full M ICE is dead after the G87.

My guess is that they'll just go m2, then m2 CSL, which will prob be x-drive.

I guess there may be a comp, but it'll be an auto only, so not interested.

Anyone else here confused about what to do when orders open up? I don't want to wait until LCI but I'm worried they release a competition model a few months down the line. I doubt we get much clarity on that at launch

Yeah. With it being the last non hybrid, I just wanna get one, put it in the garage, and call it a day. I don't want an auto, I can't afford a CSL, and I really love ZB. I don't want to wait and not have that blue available.

Plus, with BMW, who knows if the potential special editions will even look cool. They're known for putting out funkadellic variants with weird stuff like golden trim, etc. the m2 may be weird, but it could get way weirder!

Guess it's like they say, first impressions are everything. Lots of people have already made up their minds after seeing some shitty pics from the worst possible angels. Not to mention one of the worst launch colors I've ever seen and under super bright lights making it looked washed out. FFS we haven't seen the official release of the car yet, maybe be a little bit more measured instead of flipping the F out? There's plenty of time for everyone to gripe (and they will) once it's officially revealed.

Chill out!
