There are no definitive statistics for something this specific. But it doesn't take a genius to extrapolate:
1- it's a 4 door sedan with almost as many convenience features as an S class.
2- it's meant for the road first, track second.
3- even those that do track it, most go once or twice a year average. Still not justifying a hideous car.
4- its competitors are the RS4/5, C63, Quadrifoglio.
5- other competitors managed to design beautiful cars while focusing on performance, including BMW (M8).
6- owners that track their cars are commonly enthusiasts, which are most likely forum members. So you can most likely gauge the percentage of owners that track the car just from this forum.
7- if you like the design, that's great. But most on here do not and you need to respect that. If you don't want negative feedback then don't post shit on a PUBLIC forum.

Most of your points are fair. Appearances are subjective (whereas performance is not) , and each of us are enthusiasts with very strong opinions. People have the right to make decisions about the appearance of a car without ever seeing it in its entirety. And other people (myself) have the right to judge them for making decisions based on grainy, and leaked images of a portion of the car.
WHERE I TAKE ISSUE is with the histrionics of certain members who say "100% the designers of BMW are not proud of this," or other such ridiculous statements. |
Yeah I don't blame you for wanting to wait until official release. Ill probably still want to see it in person, just out of curiosity as to what the BMW designers saw. Yes forum members hate on every new generation of a model line. They did the same with the 997, 991, 992, E92, F80, etc. I just hope these photos dont do the car justice.
