I certainly hope it will have CSL-homage-like big grills.
And this looks very similar to CSL Homage!

Big grills are fine if their incorporated into the design well. The 4 series renders made them look tacked on as if the car was meant to have the typical grills we've seen during the last few generations of 3 series, but then at the last moment someone said, "let's see what it would look like with big, odd shaped kidney grills."

Yeah...Thankfully the G20 isn't blemished by the stupid hood line like on the F30. It's the one thing I really don't like about my 340i.

I understand that the renders aren't just randomly drafted. Why can't you just allow some of us to hold onto hope that things turn out differently? We're not critiquing the artists or their interpretation, we're just hoping against odds that things turn out good in the end.

Oh no, no, no. Don't back pedal now. You've already stated/inferred with such confidence that it wouldn't have large grills, so you have to stick with that. None of this, "I don't care..." stuff to allow yourself wiggle room. Quote:
P.S. I, too, hope it looks decent enough for me to want to spend my money on. |

Haha! Didn't know you had an actual list going ...
The most recent photos show a two-part upper and lower grille suggesting smaller kidneys... are you taking the surface area of all grilles on the front and counting that or just the two main kidneys? The new M4 vert renders are maybe even worse than the full top-to-bottom renders of the M3. So maybe bigger is better? Oh man... only a few more days and we'll see. Sure hope it doesn't look like that render! Big grilles is one thing but that render (although cleanly done) looks pretty bad & would probably drive me towards something else. Fingers crossed, especially now that we know there is a 6MT coming

I think the renders with the horizontal slats are the real deal, especially because we've already seen what seems to be the full production grill in the earlier spy shots. |
