Wanna see it in person but I think I'm in, I think it look old pretty good, and the rear might be better than the f87. And that's coming from an f87 owner.

Looks like the last gen Civic Type R with all of the tacked on megatron body panels. Not good

I actually like it from certain angles...
But it's a fat pig, and 0-100kph in 4.1 seconds? That is not much faster than the F87. |

...also 406 lb ft is really kind of low... this is identical to the predecessor and nearly 75 lb ft less than G80... thats a massive difference and this motor will feel quite detuned like the F87s...

I'll be seeing it in person on Saturday at the 50 Years of M celebration so I'll be looking forward to that. Really not thrilled with this one right now though

Better than I anticipated but strange it's a bit heavier than the M3.

Nice seats. Carbon roof is cool. Like the mini duck tail boot lid too.
Red looks way better than the baby blue. Such a shame they dropped the dct, now you've pretty much gotta go with the manual imo.

LOVE IT!
Very aggressive. Red makes all the difference. 453 hp from the S58! 6MT. Flared arches. 275/285 19s/20s. Carbon roof! Cool mirrors! And the back end looks much better than expected. Wow! It works for me. |

 I really like this angle. The rear still looks kind of like a disaster. Toronto Red was a much better launch color than the pale blue we've been seeing. Overall: better than expected. Overall not an ugly looking car, but also not as instantly amazing as the F87. If the F87 never existed, this would have been a fine first M2. |

Still not crazy about it, but it looks much better in Toronto Red, highlights the muscular bulge of the vehicle. The interior is standard BMW, attractive and understated. Love the carbon seats with M Color. The things I don't like are still present but what a difference a color makes.

Love it but… where are the M side vents? Also the front bumper is a bit too squared off but at least it's not a a carbon copy of other M cars in the range.
