Touched up to be a little brighter.
See the diamond-shaped outline.

More aerodynamic when cooling isn't needed (i.e. cruising at low engine load). Thus increasing efficiency and reducing engine load even further, so it's a good idea. Like posters above mentioned, hopefully they don't break.

I really hope this new tall grill design works - if the grills are ugly this will singlehandedly stop a lot of people - including me - from even considering the G8x - no matter how great the car is otherwise.
Every M3/M4 ever made has always been a very good looking car - I cannot even fathom an ugly duckling M3//M4. Until more camo is removed - I'm trying my best to remain as cautiously optimistic as I can... |

When zooming out Scott26’s picture and the homage R picture someone posted to fill the screen it looks promisingly similar both but in outline and internal grill structure...

Personally I can't wait for this sabre toothed M3.

The M3 always inherits from the coupe and it makes the M car more distinctive and, frankly, better looking than the regular 3er in each generation, including hopefully the G80 generation.
The G20 look is boring IMO. So, I'm all for the G80 having a different and distinctive look. I’m not concerned with grill size or whatever other element of the car that may be bigger or smaller so long as the overall design sufficiently deviates from the blandness that is the G20 to make me want to buy it. |

Although it's the 4er here. I have adjusted the contrast so you can see the outline of the Grille as it will be on the 4er/i4 and M3/M4.
If we look at this other shot the interplay of light and shadow illustrates the 4er will have very broad rear shoulders and be far more organic than the outgoing F32. A sibling to THE 8.

I'm so very intrigued but also so very afraid of this new grille.
