Took pics of a G22 M440i Coupe, F90 M5 LCI, and F95 X5M at BMW UK HQ

Idk if it's just me, but the wheels look sooo small on the 4 series.

Thank you for sharing.

Rule for all (other) BMWs - never let an E46 CSL share the podium in a photo. It's just not a fair fight.

spool twice · 07-17-2020, 12:27 PM

I don't mind the design, it just doesn't have the traditional BMW styling cues which can be good (sea of blandness) or bad (traditionalists like me can't relate to it).

Is that an RCF?!

Am I the only one who sees the proportions of the 440i are completely off?? It's hideous and huge! Look at the overhangs compared to the F32/F82, how could BMW screw this up so badly?!

The new 4.... it's like an older woman with some really old, huge, fake boobs. As a guy, you're supposed to like big boobs. These are big boobs. But they're ugly and mishapen, and you cannot stop staring. But you want to look away.

I used to think the 4-series was a 0/10

The more I see it now I think it is a (-)8

Tasteless and gaudy.

blau.violett.rot · 07-17-2020, 12:39 PM

The F90 front end would appear even better with the pre-LCI headlight design. Looking good though.

akBMWGrandRiver · 07-17-2020, 12:44 PM

what colour is the Blue M440i?

ali820 · 07-17-2020, 12:44 PM

CSL is a timeless classic!

M2c has aspirations to be a future classic in its own right!

Owning one of these would be awesome, owning both would be a dream come true!

evo-mike · 07-17-2020, 12:53 PM

It looks better in blue, never noticed how bad the fenders are. It almost looks like a bad photoshop job

Not only is the new 4 series ugly, but the car is HUGE at 187 inches long.

They didn't do themselves any favors putting it next to the M5. Shows how much better the 4 could've looked with a grill more like the 8, and shows how incredibly and unnecessarily big the 4 has gotten.

R N M · 07-17-2020, 12:55 PM

Wow these HD REAL LIFE pics show how Hideous this 4series truly is even from the side 🤮

BMthusiast · 07-17-2020, 12:58 PM

This is honestly an easy fix. The G series 4er looks much better with the front plate lowered. Traditional kidney design gets translated better in my opinion with the top line of the plate serving as the bottom lines of the kidneys (effectively).

Exactly the new 4 series does not look like a BMW.

Not bad at all.
