Please no

Nothing from the G82. Such a mishmash of poor proportions

Everyone goes on about the new 4 series and m 3/4 grille but I can't stand the big smiley Ford face of the current 3 series..
This actually slightly improves it.. albeit hard to discern from the 5 series LCI

Render looks good, except that I wonder what the DRLs would look like if someone doesn't opt for the laser lights?

I can't get over the fact that the 3, 4 and even the X5, a significantly higher priced vehicle, doesn't get proper DRLs unless you opt for the laser lights, which is always bundled in a $10K options package.

Good point. The E90 LCi was one of the best and dated the pre-LCi over night.

Bmw43 - Thank you for this post. This looks "much better" than the buck teeth grills on the G80 M3 ever will. I hope the LCI fixed that mess.

Love it. Bring it to G80/82 M cars and I won't have to leave the brand for my next car.

Base BMW headlights always look like crap

Laughable when you actually see them

Nice render. Front looks cleaner than the current, but the headlights look too generic. Think I'll hang on to my 2020 for a while

Now I wish my 330i had these new grills.

They are imposing in person, and absolutely give this car an aggressive character.

oh, what a cop out. The notched eyes was a nice touch. I do like the grilles though. The current gen 3 has grilles that look like an afterthought at best.

If it looks like smaller 5 series it is OK, the 5 is always a little too long for my taste, since E60 really.

So will I. Without the notched headlights (which gave just the right sprinkling of aggression to the G20), there will be little to distinguish the 3 from the frontend of the rather sedate, conservatively-styled 5 series now. Why does the 3 need to be subjected to this kind of tacit barge-ification?

Dunno, but I like the LCI better. So much better than the G42.

Does anyone else feel like the G20 "only just" came out - considering the pandemic and production delays - and the LCI is already right around the corner?

Does anyone know if the 3-series LCI will impact the 4-series? Or for that matter, if the M4 will get an LCI as well?
