Portimao Blue G20 330i M Sport With M Performance Parts

chicagofan00 · 02-25-2019, 09:17 AM

Everything looks good except for the side graphics and that horrible grille badge the dealership put on it.

I might have to post that in the fake badges thread

The grill looks much better in black vs the chrome

I just do not understand the new grilles, this one and on the M340i. Why are they filled in and have fake slots? I really hope this doesn't follow onto the new M3.

Car looks good but that side sticker is awful. why do they insist on doing that? painting the middle section on the diffuser body color could be interesting

Mavus · 02-25-2019, 09:39 AM

Anyone else see this?

dmboone25 · 02-25-2019, 09:48 AM

Really like the wheels - would love to see these on an F80 or M2/M2C.

The front of the car looks too...smashed or squinty....maybe it will be better in the flesh.

BMW435 · 02-25-2019, 09:49 AM

Now the car needs to be lowered a bit, can someone Photoshop it ?

mhjeep · 02-25-2019, 09:49 AM

Why in the world are they slapping an M badge on the rear sliding brake caliper on that lowly 330i?

Looking more and more like a Subaru Imprezza. Horrendous. Have BMW forgotten that they should have a little taste and reference their heritage ?

cfm56d7b · 02-25-2019, 10:18 AM

G20 styling hasn't yet fully registered with me. The black wheels do not raise the curb appeal either. Yet someone will surely buy this vehicle as is.

NathObeaN · 02-25-2019, 10:18 AM

Why is the M division/BMW so incapable of making stickers/vinyls that don't look horrendous?

Nikolas · 02-25-2019, 10:34 AM

That front grille is hideous!

Spoolin Montego · 02-25-2019, 10:39 AM

I like it all, but wtf is going on with those sideskirts theyre hiddeous.

I would like to think there will be a way to keep the flaps open via coding or unplugging something as it looks awful closed.

Hope this gen looks better in person than these photos - sad that the 2 series looks better than this new 3 series now.

goj · 02-25-2019, 11:06 AM

Would look better with the silver wheels
