M440i - White w/ Shadowline

     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Must say I've seen the grille in person and its still kind of hard getting use to, two specs I've seen so far that do look better than the rest.

This one that's white and with the Shadowline.

The other I don't have a video of yet but I saw pix of a black w/ Shadowline and think that's my favorite.

Let me know what you guys think?

I don’t mind the grille so much any more, but had never noticed the ‘smile’ vent underneath the grille - perhaps because it stands out more with the white paint.

Looks terrible, in my opinion. Makes the whole front of the car look like a smiley face, which I can’t unsee now.

Sounds nice though. Wish my 540I sounded like that!

I love everything about the M440i except the front. I can't get past that.

When Coke came out with "New Coke" it bombed and the company quickly offered the regular coke as an alternative. It would be nice if BMW were as perspicacious as Coca Cola and came out with an alternate front without the Edsel grills.

Agreed, maybe as an option, they could put on their build website as well.

I'm pretty neutral about it at this point. I will admit when I drove it they de-tuned the exhaust a bit compared to the 340i. I heard they did it for the 340i as well for the 2021 model year. Maybe to make the M performance exhaust more enticing.
