100% agree, current C sedan and coupe are beautiful, and in my opinion best looking in their class and likely to age well. I've always liked the mini S-classes design, they look way more expensive than they are, and I never understood the negative comments on the rear end. The only thing I never liked (and same applies to my CLS) is the damn US bumper regulations that adds on plastic besides the plate, euro gets nice and clean bumpers!

Congrats on your upcoming $75K M440i order with Merino leather.

Seriously though buy an 8.

This is the result of a bad boss who has a huge ego to even listen to any sensible talk from his more creative design team, everyone keeps their job and become yes men. They launch this disaster, no style statement.

Confused Alfa Romeo front grill, bizarro Hyundai Elanta/Sonata rear. Hideous hood dividing line, and funny sharp inward angled headlights, got punched in the nose to get all swelled up at the BMW hood logo.

Has anyone an idea what color this is?

You can see it in the Configurator with the M Sport Pro Package..

Is this a Bug in the Configurator? Or a color bmw withhold us?

Personally I really didn’t like it the first time I saw it, but for some reason after a few days it doesn’t seem as offensive now.

stein_325i · 06-06-2020, 01:01 PM

Found this photo in the M2 forums. Doesn't look very happy on track.

I've asked myself the same question...

It's a bit weird to not get this option available. No clue if it's going to in the option list soon.

This rendering I think really blends the best of both worlds here. I think that looks pretty darn good. It looks like a sharks snout instead of a pigs nose.

Whispering...Look at that smile...so happily unaware of how ugly she is.

As much as they forgot to design a car, they also forgot to spell too. OPTIMIZE not optimise!

Like that you can get ventilated seats as an option. Is that already available on the G20? Was waiting for that to come to the 3/4 series

Not available at all on the G20 unfortunately.

Crazy to think they get these cars all the way to the tip of Africa for these pics.....Cape Town👏🏻
They mess up on one pic where you see him driving on the wrong side of the road 🙄

Wow that Alpine White M-sport looks awful and not aggressive at all. Dare I say that black non-Msport looks better...

Interesting and bold. Come into a new company and change a lot of the things that they have been known and that their customers have loved for years before you even thought about going there. I'm going to be new, bold, unsafe and you all can just deal with it.

advantage20 · 06-08-2020, 08:36 AM

So the Shadowline headlights option has everything blacked out including DRLs?

If you want to appreciate the 4 series, have a look at the leaked m4 photo. The front end on that car is a monstrosity.

I hate when people imply that change for its own sake is good. Change is good when required, or when it's part of a carefully planned strategy to improve. Changing signature design elements like the hoffmeister kink or grills "just because we can", or because "why not" are not constructive changes. Change like that is usually a disaster.

I love positive change, but I also live by the wisdom, "If it isn't broken, don't try to fix it."
