These renders are giving me E36 vibes - relatively great performer for its intended purpose but design generally not well received.
Like BMWs of the past, could be something that could be more appreciated some time down the road. |

Very cool. A lot of character just like the M3/M4, but in a different way.

I think you have a point there. It's like an R34 GT-R mashup with an e36 M3.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I don't hate it. If the headlight shape is indeed different than the base 2 series, then it fixes the front a bit to my eyes. I still hate the frameless stamped looking grille surrounds and the tail lights, but it's getting there.

Not too shab but hasn't Lemeinter already implied that this render is inaccurate in the other thread?
He seems to be in the know w Scott

Preparation for hood divets like M3/4. That's my guess.

The plumbers crack might be one of my low-key least favorite design features on G8X, was hoping it wouldn’t make it to G87 *sigh*

Good render of a horrible design. I really really hope this is not the final bumper... Usually M cars look better than the normal series... this might be the exception if it looks like that.

Appreciate your efforts!
However those big square air vents are a big no from me.

I think it's just missing some honeycomb grille covering the lower portion of the bumper

I really appreciate your renderings. They are great. I kinda hope the G87 doesn't go as squared off as you show it. I have to admit that it does look good but I like the quirkiness of the scoops over generations better. They say BMW to me.

It looks better than what it really is because everyone is comparing it to the G80
Personally, I think it's an okay design but by no means attractive I see little incentive to upgrade to this from the F87, while the interior is significantly better, the exterior will feel like a big downgrade
