i disagree. it looks MORE like the RC tail lights at night when only the L shaped light bar is lit up. just look at this

From the in person looks I've had with Lexus's the new tailights just look way sleeker and better imo. They resemble but it's the new design language so might as well get accustomed to it. Even saw some spy shots with these type of tailights on the 7 series

The 7 series? You mean the absolute undisputed worst car BMW makes?

To me it's more like face-lifted Lexus GS with lights on.
They sure copy-and-pasted L-shaped 3D tailights from RC.

Then you have understood some important things in life - good for you. And no matter how the past was, if you are happy with what you are now, it has made you a stronger person.

And (compared with the German social system) it's a shame that you had to have these experiences in life at all - in the richest country in the world (yes I know that's only half the truth). And 50% of my salary goes away for social fees and tax but at least nobody has to worry here about getting ill or having to sleep on the road.

Having been a fan of San Marino Blue for quite some time, I wonder how Portimao Blue looks side to side with San Marino Blue. Hope to see pictures one day.

Grill and tail lights aside, I'm getting a strong whiff of C class from this angle. Shame.

Wow.

If you cannot convince five out of nine people it's gonna look absolutely wicked w/ black front kidneys.... Then I'd say you've lost it and it's time for you to sell for another brand !

The top tier models always work long enough or be at its prime for the first couple of years. Usually who ever leases them get to experience that. I doubt BMW, Merc, or Audi care about the longevity of their high end models for the general public

Million posts and all about headlights and tail lights and grilles. Says something about how similar designs are otherwise in this "exec" light segment. No room for imagination, no room for error, super competitive market. Car gotta appeal to everyone, its hard to expect it to be something special.

It's OK. It's an OK car. I think Mercedes looks a little nicer and more complete as a package, plus the whole mini S class thing going for it. Audi now looks the one that has a unique style, bizzare as it is. Lexus - man, they trying too hard...

I think it will be nice and solid and everyone will get over it like people got over the nasty looking G30 5 series facia. Come 21in wheels, slammed stance, Ak exhaust and some CF hood and in 10 years it will be tastelessly slammed, like every other 3 series before it.

Im not gonna act like I tried to convince them to get the G20. When they called and said they didnt want them because of the looks, I agreed. I said "honestly, I dont blame you. I wouldnt buy it myself" to each and every one of them

This thing looks fucking colossal next to the F30 which had already bloated to near 5 series proportions
