Stunning car exept the grille.

Current 4 series owner and the choice of new car has been made easier.

I dont hate the big grilles on 7 series and X7 but this is just plain ugly.

"......and as the decade unfolded the trend towards moving the grills ever closer together reached its logical conclusion with the introduction of the K8X platform. meanwhile, prices for low mileage F82's have now exceeded six figures."

What color?

Soon, I'm going to need to upgrade from my E90. So it's either F80, F90, or another brand (4 rings probably). Not even going to consider the G80 monstrosity. Hopefully this design style will pass just like Bangle's did.

No. There is a separate section of the nose cone which is slightly higher on production. Basically the car is 85% production around the same percentage as the 8 concept to 8 production. But the overall look is the production car.

Interesting that they used a transparent "license plate" since using a solid one would make it look even crappier. Too bad for those who are required to have a front plate. Thankfully my state doesn't require it.

Hey man , you know how you made that list of people who were disbelievers of the grille?

I think you need to make a new list now

Write down every single naysayer and we will revisit their profiles in 2 years
Yeah, I'm going to do that. I can almost guarantee that some will buy the new car. Lol!

OK. One question.

Where the fuck do you put the license plate? Both US and most Euro plates are too big for that car to be placed anywhere without obtrusing the kidneys.

Bold and aggressive on the new 4, inlined with what's been imagined from spyshots all along, thanks Jason SCOTT26

Wonder if the production version will come with headlight glass cover or fully exposed as shown in the concept?

The concept also indicated there is no hood line, and possibly different grilles mesh options. Awaiting to see M3/M4 variant ...

I stilllllll, even after seeing this, am a little skeptical. Doesn't this look a little too concept-y? Mirrors, door handles... the head and tail lights don't look like something we've had on the mules either. Looking back at a 2013 thread the 4 series concept and final product are nearly identical down to even those small details.

Maybe all of that stuff will be production?

Hopefully it grows on me because I really don't think I want that front end in my sleeper sedan... you had your faith well placed, dude!
Every concept had different mirrors, slightly different bumpers, etc. than the production counterparts. This model is BMW's most significant departure, but that's the way it is intended to be.

Everyone seems to complain about this and that, especially the grill, including me and then it eventually grows on me. Not sure this one will.

Might be like the Bangle era where I need to skip a generation or two.

Is it just me or does the side profile look a bit like a Camero?

I wouldn't even say "some".
I can give you a guarantee 60% will be enjoying their new 4 series and claim how " it's the best thing to happen to BMW in years".

Can't wait to see these threads down the line.
