They need to lose the obsession with the black bits down the doors, and having random models walking in front of the car.

Otherwise it looks bang on!

Chihuahua · 09-02-2021, 02:16 PM

Wheels sure, everything else oh GOD no.

phantom7835 · 09-02-2021, 02:22 PM

Makes it look even worse

This will eventually grow on me though, there are no flat out egregious issues like the G8X

dravenport · 09-02-2021, 02:22 PM

I like it, I think the black accents would look great with a red base

swampfox94 · 09-02-2021, 02:32 PM

Big fan of the CS style spoiler on this otherwise hideous backend. Helps the propositions a good bit

Saab Story · 09-02-2021, 02:34 PM

Any news regarding a m performance exhaust for the m240i?

Wolf · 09-02-2021, 02:41 PM

whats with the weird accent above the diffuser

ghaffari46 · 09-02-2021, 02:41 PM

I'm not sure that is the design evolution from this:

Frank Stephenson described the 2-series design language very aptly.

Tag · 09-02-2021, 02:59 PM

Is that color BGM? If so it looks darker than I've previously seen.

jv004 · 09-02-2021, 03:00 PM

The black accents are hideous but I understand they have to show it for those people with weird taste. The female model looks as they are catering to the Instagram addicts

buckybadger · 09-02-2021, 03:02 PM

It has 2 long moustache's.

KennyFSU · 09-02-2021, 03:27 PM

Welp, it's starting to grow on me and I hate that lol.

JustChris · 09-02-2021, 03:30 PM

Bonnet bulge sticker.

Yeah I have been thinking about the same thing. The F body 2 series looked so good like a modern e46.

chris719 · 09-02-2021, 03:54 PM

None of the individual elements of the car look that bad, but the total package looks like it's been pieced together from 3 different cars.

TJZ67201 · 09-02-2021, 03:56 PM

I must be BMW's target audience then because I love this design. I wish the BG color was actually as dark as the pics make it look… I really wish they offered the Dravit Gray color.

No on the wheels too buddy. Those are going to be hell to clean. I like the gray color though!
