Agree. Very awkward interview especially questions unrelated to the designer’s role in exterior design. I think he answered the relevant questions though, and adequately explained the tram’s exterior design of the car.
Like the new 8th generation Corvette which is attracting buyers 20-25 years younger than the traditional a Corvette buyer, this new Bimmer may appeal to younger buyers who will keep the BMW 3/4 series sports sedans and coupes alive. That said... I am and old guy who has always appreciated the 318 and 325, but also finds the G22 a refreshing spin on the heritage of the 3/4 series cars.
I personally think all of the BMW grills have become less than attractive, but each model remains a great car in their classes.
I think the new G22 is fresh and will sell briskly. It’s an evolution of the heritage and has a contemporary kidney and even a minimalist Hofmeister kink.
Being a Corvette enthusiast who is considering a new M 3/4 series daily driver, I can compare this debate about the new G22 to the new C8 Corvette, which a lot of traditionalists are cursing, especially it’s Camaro like rear, but which is literally already sold out well into 2021
Cars evoke passion so this debate is understandable, but right now I’m liking the G22 over the G20.
