Looks a class front end in comparison

It may well end up mimicking the Aston Martin Vantage situation where full front fascia is offered in the aftermarket world.

That looks dumb af

Hello little piggy

Praying that the M4 treatment of the front grill is different enough from the 4 series to look good. I say that because some previous shots of the M4 appear to bestow the M with more of an aggressive look rather than the weak, pathetic, unattractive, poorly conceived face of the 4 series...

Ugly as hell

How such a small change can make a huge difference:

Now that the 4 series design is official, I may go E Class coupe for my next car. My F30 340i lease is up in December.

Steve Jobs would've never released an iPhone with a notch in the screen

Worst Apple design ever

Don't do that! That's my idea too haha. You're going to drive up price for 911s

Everyone please boycott this ugly ass car!!! Hopefully it's sales are horrible so BMW realizes
that they made a big ass mistake!

Much nicer front. Back looks very Lexus-y.

Whoever designed that front end needs to be fired.

Whoever approved the design needs to be incarcerated.

Ugh. Gets worse every time we see it. I'm sorry, this is not good design, and while it may be influenced from BMWs heritage per say, it's not even in proportion to the car. And what's going on in the middle with the flat surface? LCI coming with a new front end.

Unknown_Car · 06-12-2020, 05:27 PM

I think they installed the wrong bumper on the production line.

Jockey · 06-12-2020, 05:29 PM

So this is BMW thinking this is somehow better?

I mean, they approved the design so we already know they're out to lunch

Everyone is entitled for their opinion, it's what makes us all unique.

I just will have hard time buying it

I have no plans on buying any non-M BMW.

With trick lighting... Let's see it in broad daylight.

I saw this, I think the change to thevantage is good but the original wasn't terrible. The new 4 series is terrible
