Don't know why people are so surprised since the grille looks more or less like what insiders like Scott have pointed out long time ago. No, the front is not going to look like a mini 8 series and it will be much different than the current 3 series as well.

I can't say it's ugly, but I think it's a bit too much. I'm not even talking about the grills, I mean rather the front and rear bumpers. They're too sharp, angular, busy and agressive (but in a ricey way). It's a good thing that it's not as understated as the new X3 M, but I would rather prefer a bit more sporty-elegant design. And yeah, the front reminds me a bit of Audi and Alfa Romeo Guilia (especially because the grill goes that far down).

But the actual car sure will look a bit different, so we will see, I'm still positive.
