Some of you that are hoping for a landslide vote against the styling simply need to accept that not everyone shares your opinion and some people actually like the styling.
Sounds like a smart argument at first glance, but a definite no ... who are you on the pedestal or anyone for the matter to judge and claim that banned members are not as worthy as you as bmw supporters. BMWBLOG is clearly pro BMW, but they have repeatedly published grille-negative articles.

Are you or any fanboy justified in kicking BMWBLOG out of the BMW circle? Their most recent article, albeit on the G22 ... but re big grilles

"Prior to testing the new 4 Series, all of my colleagues that had already tested it before me told me that the new grille is better looking in person than it is in photos. To be honest, that’s true for most things. In person, you can see how light reflects off of different shapes better, you can see the three-dimensional aspect of different shapes and just get a better overall sense of a design. So I had a feeling the grille would look better in person and it does. But it’s still not good looking.

I like the people at BMW, they’re great people and I always have lovely conversations with them. So I felt a bit bad expressing my harsh but honest opinion. But that’s the job. It’s my job to cover and review the 4 Series and I can’t, in all honestly, say that the new 4 Series grille looks good in any way, shape or form. It looks like a beaver that’s fallen into a tub of radioactive miracle grow. The most unfortunate aspect of the irradiated grille is that the rest of the car is actually quite pretty."
