These design may look better but we have no idea if they could satisfy cooling, aero and other specifications.

I like it boys. I like it a lot. I wasn't sure about it before, but it looks mean, menacing and cool like a race car. It reminds of when E36 first came out.

I agree completely. This big grille could have been part of a much more cohesive design. M

I give the grille a C-, but the bumper I give an F.

Front end was radical for the sake of being radical. This car would absolutely look better with more appropriately proportioned kidneys.

The front bumper is just too busy.

The back is nice and admittedly the interior is a massive step up from the f8x which was arguably a step down from the e9x.

I agree this render was pretty dope.

nobody actually feels like the car is growing on them.. just reality settling in that your bimmer is no longer the hottest and newest m3 on the market.. that new gen/car shine is super alluring for those IG pages. I just hope people don't get rid of their f80s and then regret it. If I ever do consider this car, it'll likely be after 1-2 years.. 1st year models are a big no go either way.

On a more positive note, car looks mean! I dig it.
Still not into it here. Though I will admit it does look better in these photos.

I like how the grilles are connected. My least favorite part of the new grilles is the body panel in the car color between the grilles. They would look much better with a frame and connected in the middle.

I've had an E90 M3 and F80 M3 which I loved, but this new G80, though aggressive looking, is pretty fugly with that gnarly grill. Those are no longer kidney grills. I don't even know what to call them.

Certainly looks aggressive. I really wish there were two small openings at the leading edge (closest to the front) of both "nostrils" on the hood. Perhaps they are not needed for extra engine cooling, but without them the scoops seems a bit fake. I am certain these will appear with any CS variants in the future.

And that's the way it should look. Really puts into perspective how jacked up the current design is. U can force it all u want it just not we'll balanced.
