Once again, if people hate the front so much then hopefully we should have an aftermarket option in the near future to replace it. Since we spend so much money on these cars now what's an extra $1500 to have a much better option instead of the the current.

Whole point of an M car is understate but aggressive. It's not meant to be in your face. I'll reserve judgment, but big grills pretty much make it a no go. No form or function. Hard to screw up that bad with design.

If this is what the G82 is going to look like I'm going to be controversial and say it's starting to grow on me!

as far as the front design, a lot of you will change their opinion when you'll see it in person I guess.
Sometimes, when a thing at the beginning is "strange", it becomes "ok" after a period of time. So, don't say "I'll never buy it" because maybe, you will in the future. ;-)

Personally, the larger front grills do look more aggressive IMO...so from that perspective, I'm not completely trashing the new design. Can't wait to see it in full reveal.

I can guarantee that these renders are much closer to what it actually looks like in person than that distorted spy shot of the actual car. Pretty much anything with realistic proportions will be closer than that leak...

Was watching the X5 designer Frank Stephenson talk about the grille yesterday. He was like, I'm not even sure BMW designed this.
Sorry guys, but the grille doesn't need to be this big. BMW screwed up. I do like the headlights though |

Grill blah blah blah... Seriously, for those who don't like the grill, isn't it obvious by now that we know your opinion? Do you need to keep talking about it and making boring jokes that have long lost their humor? We get it. You don't like it. Stop reading these threads about the new M3/4 and, for god's sake, stop complaining about it.
FWIW, you will come around to like it. I know people like you. You are unimaginative and uncreative. You don't like trying new things and are resistant to change and are scared of the unfamiliar so you resist it. You are like the people who freaked out when sushi became popular in the western world but now love your fatty tuna and even your uni rolls. So, like sushi, the vast majority of you will eventually come around. Same happened to those who hated the Audi grill and then the Lexus "predator" grill. Now, no one bats an eye at either of those brands' cars. Same will happen to this car as well. There are already people saying they are getting used to the grill and some who hated it are now saying they like it. So, why don't you all just stop looking at these threads, give it a year or two after the car has been out for a while, then come back and buy one as you know you will. |

The real question, which I ironically asked in the first place, is why don't the haters just "swipe left" rather than opening up ANY of these G8x threads? Why keep subjecting themselves to this disgusting front end just to then post more comments about how crappy the car looks? "Varying opinions" sure. But it's not varying. it's primarly people who want to shit on the grill. I get it. I got it first 100,000 times I saw the messages. Is it necessary to keep repeating it ad nauseum? |

Well, it'd definitely be a problem if a same person is complaining all over the place. When you see complains it's most likely different person who hasnt commented yet -- unless you could prove me wrong.

I personally believe we need good balance of opposing sides. BMW need to learn people's opinion (if they're seeing this forum -- most likely). |

I suspect by the time after market comes out, BMW will faceilift this car to something that is better. Perhaps theyll introduce designer for front and rear of the car and let the work together even.
