I guess you missed the new 8-series gran coupe, "Bangle Butt" already back. Which I actually like on new 8. Will see how it looks on production version of i4. |

The Bangle butt never left. Every automaker has it since then. It's just that everyone is doing it much better and much more discreetly now.

Bangle Butt has pretty much become a norm in the auto industry now, regardless of brand.

It seems that the grills will continue to get bigger and bigger. Found this interesting depiction of how this has happened over time....

I’d probably buy this. Have been driving an S60 Polestar and like it enough that I can concede a car for around town that is electric makes too much sense.
But for the weekends it’s an 8 cylinder planet crusher with a manual transmission for me. Grill on the i4 and 4 series sucks though. |

I can't really understand why people obsess so much on the exterior. As long as it's not outright ugly, which this isn't, it's fine.
After all you sit inside the car when you drive it. |

You're still walking up to it everyday and looking back at the outside, and for some, they may like to photograph their cars and post them to instagram. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and to some beauty is a necessity.

I think this electric car will sell extremely well if not overpriced. Really like the curved high definition dashboard/screen! Everything looks really ergonomic, nice and sleek.
The negatives are the tacky Lexus gold color, the supersized kidney grills which are not even necessary anymore, the two hockey sticks exterior design elements, and the funky ugly rims. Personally don't want a solid glass roof, I prefer a metal over my head in case of a rollover. Otherwise about time BMW! |
