Yes we have known for months now that this massive grill was coming, but that doesn't change peoples hopes (a synonymy of expectation) that it wasn't going to look that bad. Unfortunately based on the concept it may be worse than most "expected"! |

Either way this front end is hideous and looks is very important when people buy cars. My gf, who doesn't pay close attention to cars, says that front end is disgusting to look at. Majority of people on Bimmerpost and in public doesn't like the front end. Why would anyone buy a car they're not attracted to? |

![]() Evolution over revolution is better than being desperate for a change and making it look horrific ... 911s barely change styling for updates and it's never a problem. M3s have followed the 3 series pretty closely with exception of F80 using 4 series front end.

Most people are not on forums and do not read car magazines but in the case of enthusiasts oriented cars like the M3/4 I think that forum members are very likely a good representation of the market for these cars.

[after the "Hey! I'm Officer/Deputy Bimmer Driver with [insert large California agency here]. Do you know why I pulled you over?" spiel] ..."Nice ///M. [Insert color or mod here] looks good. What's your username on Bimmerpost?" ..."What's Bimmerpost?" ..."Probably one the most comprehensive forums for your particular car. You've really never heard of it?" ..."No I haven't. ..."Grab a pen and write it down. Check it out sometime; plethora of info. Drive safe and slow down." ..."Thanks Sir. I will!" I changed up my tactics and started telling people that I saw their car on the forum. They still were clueless. ![]() |
