The front looks way off, the lower portion of the bumper does not look “M” like. Also, the grill is way oversized for the current g20”ish” chassis.

The rear end on the other hand looks like it might be 100% accurate.

Talking

This must be a joke... Grill is too big.

Back is realistic, looks like M340

The M3/M4 are going to have totally different front bumpers. Look at the latest spy photos. I don't get these people coming in here knocking other people's renders when they're based off the latest data points - i.e. the fact that the grille will be similar to the Hommage concept/I4 concept.

Read before you post.

Having said that, the car still looks awful.

Yikes - but unfortunately I think that's likely one of the most accurate renders to date.

While I'm still shocked after this render, I'm trying to find some hope... at least the grill doesn't look here as huge as on that render (but still too big, particularly too low).



And the vertical grill bars will not look like on the render (they look like those of normal BMW models).

The rear looks too much like an M sport, I hope it will look different. I mean compared with this render here it looks hideous:

The grill looks pretty close to what’s behind the mules (outer?) camouflage layer with two main differences. The mule has horizontal grill slats which are more suitable to such a tall grill and the mules grill frame has near vertical sides which creates a lot narrower top of the grill and a less obnoxiously wide and large area.

Although this render is horribly done. Be prepared for forum meltdown.

Remember what the forum insider(Scott26) said back in Sept in a 4series thread referring to the grills and front bumper.

Quote:
The new 4er design wise is controversial. But it works.
The Coupe is absolute perfection, no longer related in anyway aesthetically to its genetically identical twin the 3er.
People will hate and people will debate. I find that will be delicious.

The form and size of the grill frame behind the camouflage looks near identical to that of the i4 but with two vertical dividers in the center creating two separate octagonal grills with horizontal slats.

Much too small for my tastes. For the upcoming 4 series/G80 with the 5A9 package, Charcoal Grill, I usually prefer to cook an animal whole .
