I stopped being change resistant a while back, so... I like it for the most part. No doubt it'll keep BMWs looking distinctive. Wonder if it'll make it to the G20 LCI

Instead of a new M3/M4, the only BMW I'm now interested is M340i. So thanks BMW for saving me some $$$ or pushing me to another brand.

Do you even need a poll for this? All you need is one barely functioning eye.

Front end is OK apart from the fact that some other motorists find it aggressive. It's the back end that is a design faux pas, looks like an overstuffed paillasse.

For all the hype about the new platform, looks like the G80 will end up being a total butterface. I'm rushing to my local BMW dealer and ordering a F82.

Abomination! BMW will now officially be the laughing stock in the styling department. Someone must have design this on April fools day, there's just no excuse to sign off on that. The kidney grill is one of the key elements of a bimmer; why couldn't they follow Porsche lead on how to keep the key elements alive in every new generation. This grill makes the update 7 series looks normal now.

The front end is going to take some getting used to, but I definitely agree with you. The rear bothers me and I can’t put my finger on exactly what it is...maybe you’re right it’s how squished it is?

I'm a fan! Yea they're almost comically large but I think it's fresh and works. Curious to see it on the M3 and eventual M2.

The thing is that the grill is so out of place. BMW used to have the top 2/3 of the front fascia be the grill and headlight. underneath would be a style of \---/ or /---\ (for m cars). Now, underneath and around the grill is a weird smile, the huge grill just isn't Incorporated in well.

Ugliest bmw design ever made. No way I'll buy a car with a grill like that.

It looks awful.Some of the pics make it actually look like it should belong in a cartoon.They took big to the extreme and also threw in an ugly huge front bumper.Just for fun they also decided to design a narrow brutal looking rear end.The whole design is a joke.

I like the angular/geometric corners in the revised kidney grill, but they need to SCALE IT DOWN AND GIVE IT A REAL BUMPER. I vote no!

that rear end doesn't look narrow to me. looks wide actually and it looks great. Just the front grille I can't get over.

I think the whole thing looks great EXCEPT for the stupid grill and associated smiling bumper. Gross!
