As is, it remains an ugly production car that gives birth to a may be less ugly race car.

Thing is, race cars can be ugly, and that's ok. If they would inspire a road going car it would work better. I really wish this agressive car styling thing would just go away for a bit. I want beautiful looking cars, not aggressive crap with large intakes.

Im staring at a 911 every morning as I go to work, it has no grilles at all and it looks just fine.
You're in luck! There are plenty of beautiful looking cars that aren't "aggressive". Why not look at them instead of BMW Ms? There are those of us who really appreciate the aggressive looks in production cars. The thing is, beauty is entirely subjective.

The thing that got me into M3s over Audi or AMG is the styling. In my opinion, BMW M has done a far better job of making the M3/4 stand apart from the base non-M models. The F80 was my first M for this reason and the G80 I feel like takes that aggressive styling even further in the right direction. When I see an Audi A4 drive by, I can't tell if its an S4/RS4 until I see either the badge or the quad exhaust.
