I won't be so quick to condemn the G80 grills because I've always felt BMW could have done more to distinguish the true M models from the regular models. As a F80 owner most non car enthusiasts think I'm just driving a well dressed 3 series.
With saying that I welcome the radical change of the large grills but dont approve of removing the hood bulge in favor of large grills. If that makes sense. |

Looks like a semi truck grill for knocking out deer.

This looks terrible from the front. Jesus christ. BMW is going downhill in styling. The F8x series was gorgeous.. why couldn't have they left the ugly treatment for the 4 series? Leave the 3 series front end alone, it was perfect as it was.. just needed flares, M bumpers and wheels.
Sound? AMG Looks? RS5/AMG Speed? AMG/G80 It only has its motor going for it and thats no where nearly remotely enough with a front end like that. |

I like the large grills too. It'll just take time to get used to, because it is such a big difference from the past few years. I've already seen pics of the concept next to previous gen BMWs and they look so old. This is very modern and aggressive

No. More like 6 cylinder hybrid. And it will look much better both in and out.

Rumor currently, but even still the current C63 will likely be on sale for 2-3 more years

This. Most would say "Wow that's a nice BMW" at MOST and would look confused if you even used the term "3 series" when describing the car

A total cop out. Trying revolutionize styling and do something other than the norm, but effectively gave up and said "we'll just make the grille bigger. Downside is at least the Asian market will love it..."
