Funny you say that. I showed the M3 pictures to my dad who's a casual observer and he immediately said it looks like an Alfa.
I think besides the depth of the grille, it's also the fact that it's frameless that makes it look like an Alfa.

People's strong distaste for the car is making them grasp at straws (I may get in trouble for saying so, although I certainly don't mean any offense to the OP). Not a single similarity about the front of those two cars.

I was kind of getting used to the front but it's a new day, and with a fresh set of eyes I just find it offensive.

I see a slight resemblance. The Giulia's front is a tad over-styled and has that long grille but it's 50% as large. The G8X is in a league of its own.

I started to build one on the site and closed the window 30 seconds later. I was completely uninspired and at a loss. The X button was an easy solution for me at the time.

Beautiful. I plan on doing a fire orange G80 after the lease is up on the first one, and given that BMW will eventually stop making 6MTs, ill hang onto it forever.

The only acceptable option could be the goldish M performance wheels, although I never intended to ever have gold wheels (but at least you see them, so you can see the stance of the car instead of a black hole in the wheel arches). But this is going to be pricey since you can't buy the car with those wheels from factory. And they are 20" front and 21" rear, pretty big and probably not that comfortable. I know there will always be aftermarket options, but I always prefer OEM if possible. Last edited by Art__Vandelay; 09-25-2020 at 03:27 PM.. |

Ah that sucks, yeah I was so caught up in my own satisfaction of the back wheel offerings I didn't notice there wasn't a full silver. Yeah the gold ones are too big, the roads in San Francisco are beyond awful, it's 3rd world level roads here in some places (Lombard street I'm looking at you) so that wouldn't work for me.
Which ones did these end up being?
