It's just so disheartening to see this brand do this.
It's been a long time coming. First BMW started to severely dilute their driving experience roughly a decade ago. It was only a matter of time before their styling also started catering to the "Instagram-ification" of society. These cars all attempt to look trendy to appease to a certain demographic.

And I will say, that nearly every single BMW owner I know is the type of person who just wants a nice car that looks cool and has a badge they can flex on people. They don't know a thing about steering, handling, etc. BMW knows their customers well and has transformed their brand over the past decade to cater to their interests.

With all this being said, I can live with this new 2-series despite those ridiculous headlights and edges of the front bumper.
