Test car driving around in public without camouflage on the kidneys. Reveal must be only days away.

SCOTT26 · 02-24-2020, 12:04 PM

The mask is beginning to slip.

Prissy · 02-24-2020, 01:15 PM

Not a fan of that rear fender yet...

Yuck.

It hasn't even been shown yet. Sheesh.

therealm3 · 02-24-2020, 01:22 PM

Ugh. I don't like how this is shaping up. At least the g20 looks decent still.

That looks like a real picture of a real car on road . . . not a rendering.

Either way, everything we have seen is the same. The iconic kidney grille appears to have eaten a Lexus.

It's not just the size either, it's how flat and boxy it looks.

So, unless, everything we have seen to date turns out to be a hoax, pretty sure the official reveal will be just as bad as advertised.

I mean sure, but it's covered in tape and "camouflage" vinyl. I think to grow on you you'd have to see it uncovered and often.

I really wonder how many of these things they are going to sell?

Grill doesn't look to bad but, Don't like the mouth

A lot of them. It might be polarizing but I doubt it’ll hurt sales much.

Berks used a potatoe to take these videos and images but I appreciate the source.

This car really isnt doing it for me. that grill is just terrible.

I agree. From what little we've seen so far, the grill is awful. Looks like an Alfa Giulia with two large grills instead of one.

JTO24 · 02-24-2020, 01:43 PM

In that one pic shared in one of these threads from that BMW internal meeting, it stated SOC (Start of Conversation) for the 4 series was 03/06/20, which would be June in European date formatting but could it actually be March 6th instead? SOC would make sense to initiate in March, rather than June, if the cars go on sale this summer... hoping we get the full reveal next week.

CP911 · 02-24-2020, 01:45 PM

At least the grille is not flat. All of the renders lately have been horrible with completely flat grilles. This has potential. I'm excited to see it.
