Looks fine; I’m biased since I’m a F32 owner but I always hated that beltline/ weird hoffmeister kink. That’s why I like the G23 convertible so much more

Looks like they blacked out the nuggets in the kidney. Definitely makes it less gaudy

So, basically new headlights. I'm not seeing much of an update here. The most egregious design flaw in this car isn't the front, it's the C-pillar. To not have the traditional Hofmeister kink on a BMW that is effectively a two door 3-series is completely blasphemous.

I like this. My post history will show my biggest gripe with this was actually the standard drl pre-lci with the droopy eye look rather than the grill

The front plate is helping to obfuscate the front grills. Seems like a weird choice to include that in the photo.

I'm hoping all of the details release today.

Edit:
BMWBlog confirms the reveal is indeed today.

Some spy photos appear to show it will be the M4 CSL lasers.

I'll never be able to get past the horizontal cut line in the hood. Once you see it, it cannot be unseen....

So the M440i will also get an M badge on the grill?

Nothing to fix - other than if they could already include a Vorsteiner style grille as stock.

new color of red or is that Melbourne? Vegas red would be a nice addition to the std color list.

Likey the lasers in the rear if that transfers over to G2x 4-er models.
