No, but I'm 46 too and I also need glasses.

Lol, I still got 20/20 vision so my unpopular opinion on the look is not due to my vision.

I like the front intakes, mirror caps, and wheels. Maybe the rear bumper inserts with a more aggressive dual exhaust diffuser.

New m2 would be a great drive, but a quick question: how old are the performance parts designers? 12?

The only thing I like are the black trim pieces in the rear bumper. Somehow they make the taillights work better - which is the part I dislike the most about the G87 design.

You might actually be on to something

An M2 owner posted the other day that his 12 yo son absolutely loves everything about it

The comments on Insta are overwhelmingly negative and the margin is massive. BMW can’t be pleased.

Toyota let Bmw design the interior and drivetrain for the Supra, in return BMW let Toyota design the exterior and Mperformance parts of the G87!

I guess BMW came out with those air flow vents around the wheels to make up for not being able to put the usual fender vent on the car?

I'm hoping BMW comes out with a more traditional style because I can't get on board with that style

Unfortunately, BMW has really gone in the direction of Subaru WRX and Honda Civic….it's just to JDM for me.

Please bring back the classic BMW design language that lasts the test of time….not some recent fad

That's a great way of saying it actually

I like to personalize, but tastefully

Not the shock & awe approach
