Reminds me of an Audi with split grill. LOL. I suppose the cayenne coupe is a good shout.

"I really hope this is just some photoshop prank. That grille might just be the worst thing to happen to design and style since the mullet."

BINGO!

WTF! Is this a joke?

WTF! Is this a joke?

Obviously this vehicle needs air-intakes for cooling. But I still do not understand why there are plastic covers that close the kidney grills for supposed efficiency. Then what the hell is the point of the kidney grills in the first place?

This front rendering looks like the Designer gave it to their young child and said here have a go at it with your crayons.

BMW M Division / Exterior Designers you MUST do better than this!!!

Making it my 2018 F30 ZHP look better and better with each crazy new rendering. Has someone important got a grill fetish at BMW?

Cool Design Principles

Pretty much anything besides these renderings/concepts would be a travesty of Design principles!

My god... I have an X5 and was able to justify and defend the big grill but this ...looks... I won't judge until I see the real product....

Edit:
Looking carefully at the original picture, I don't think the kidney grills will connect with the bottom intake opening. You can clearly see that there is an area for bolts and license plate. Still, the horizontal grill design is something to get used to...

Looks like bugs bunny.

Glad I got in on a M2C before this aesthetic takes over M.

I loved the days when an M car was more a sleeper that if quickly glanced at would be mistaken for a base series. Makes me think of this ha
Wow exactly what i thought of at first sight!! Lol
