LOL at the rear only " leaked " images..
if I was going to leak an image... why would I only leak one angle? Last edited by M3 Adjuster; 10-21-2019 at 04:25 PM.. |

Sorry Scott, but the rear bumper/diffuser contraption really does look like a mess. Not to mention factory side skirts? What have the designers been drinking lately?

There are always those slow adopters.
But if you go back to F8X spy photos, it was actually pretty well liked. People thought the aggressive front end was a nice change. Of course the exhaust note was harped on relentlessly, and still is. But the overall appearance was welcomed. There are almost no positive comments for the G80, other than it "being different." This diffuser looks like an abomination, not to mention the weird body creases along the trunk and sides. |

That would be good news. I have no problem if the car will look agressive, but please not like a G20 with some tacky aftermarket parts.

The diffuser/roof needs to be in CF or painted black and the trunk is begging for a taller spoiler. I like how they incorporated a more aggressive diffuser - probably saw how popular the PSM and Varis kit was on the F8x. Overall I'm digging the new rear end.

I don't mind it guys, it looks good IMO. Better in other colors (Dravit, Tanzanite)?
It's the front-end that will polarize folks and melt faces. I see BMW are "leaking" the safer shots first. Not a bad strategy. |

The fake diffuser is just body colored. It's shiny so reflecting off the light diamond plate on the ground.

I think this car completely fixes the weak F80 bumpers. I like all the sheet metal on the F80 but the bumpers look way too overdone. The G80 bumpers look much better without random curves ending in random places. The only thing I don't like is the body colored fake diffuser. That's easy to wrap, though.
I held off on the F80 after confirmation of a manual G80 and I'm glad I did. The rear bumper is far better on the G80. |

im done, thats it ive stuck around long enough to see what this mess is all about and im out. long gone are the days of simple, clean, long flowing lines and now its just a bunch of hodge podge too many designers in the kitchen crap. i know rice rockets across the street patched together w duct tape that look better than the rear end of this nonsense ... keeping my F80 and when its done im movin to Porsche. ya go ahead and count me as one of the "few" but seriously, the designs coming out of munich lately have become questionable at best. Classes, cheap looking, plastic everywhere. nothing flows, nothing connects, nothing is seemless, its all a damn patchwork quilt, like some kind of LEGO Technic set haha. Really at a loss for words here, i just hope this is not the finished product and theyre settin the bar REAL LOW here...
