I like it, grill isnt really out of proportion.. the rake at the top integrates nicely into the hood

very interested to see the new M facia with the grills being a bit taller to fit into the more pronounced nostrils

sad that i cant get M440i with sunset orange — also, the hybrid doesnt add any horsepower or torque? those numbers seem the same as a normal M340i today.

It adds 11 bhp. However the M340i doesn't have the hybrid technology and it still produces 374 bhp and 500nm torque

Not as bad as I thought it would look. Months and months of planned strategic leaks to let us complain and vent steam was mostly successful. It's not as offensive as it was last year. The car is overall still too big for me, but I think the target demo will like this. I'm still not too fond of the M badge, but that's more about people's egos than anything else.

More room, lots of tech, striking styling. At least it isn't boring.

_Mbition · 06-02-2020, 12:51 PM

The MP parts don't make it any better.
First thing I went for was the black grille, then realized the plate just messes it up.
Doesn't break it up nicely, evenly, or aesthetically.

I pray they make a plate-less option. Because it's a waste of it's just going to be like this all day.

Wow, the G20 suddenly looks dated to me, even if I'm not 100% fond of the G23.

L27 · 06-02-2020, 12:53 PM

I hope, I really do, that in 2027 we won't say "the G22 looks better".

I do NOT like the G22 but what BMW is doing lately, it looks like every new model is "less beautiful" that its predecessor.

The only new BMW that I absolutely love is the 8 series, except the digital instrument cluster (Mercedes and Audi have much better ones)

Yes, but did forget his own information had already shown it wouldn't come until November anyway? I think he may have.

That side blade thing makes it look like an suv.

They need to stop pretending this car is a sports car. The stripe at 12 and the front canards are tacky.

SW19 · 06-02-2020, 12:58 PM

Not a fan of the design.The huge kidney grille is to big in proportion to the design of the M Sport front bumper.It looks like it was just stuck on.Then you have a smiley shaped opening in the bumper below the kidney grille.It is very noticeable on the Alpine White car and makes the front design of the car look ridiculous.

I also don’t understand why they need to keep making every new model larger and heavier than the previous model.The current 4 series is already to large and this car is 5 inches longer.They should have never made any 4 series larger than the E92.

..one of the oddest performance bits I've seen...

kyleb350 · 06-02-2020, 12:59 PM

Eesh. Was hoping for a surprise. Hopefully M can still pull off some magic on the looks. I could (mayyyybe) overlook the huge grills if there wasn't a smiley face underneath.

Front doesnt look as bad anymore, the grin under the grilles isn't very pleasing though.

But the side profile literally looks like those 2004-2006 accord coupes, bland and generic.

M4 vs 440i. Not a fair comparison. Let's see the M4 vs new M4.
