I hate to say it, because I have loved BMWs since the 90s, but the other brands are just doing it better. I read an interview where one of the head designers at BMW essentially said he didn't see the significance of keeping traditional design elements. (Corona rings, the kink, etc) You can really see that in 2021 models (Aside from the LCI 5er which isn't too bad, but mark my words the next gen 5er is gonna be an ugly one)

I hated the F8x at the beginning and still not a fan of the grill touching the lights...
