When you see a car that's very pleasing aesthetically, it doesn't have to grow on you, you're wowed by it immediately. |

Can you fix the headlights and make the kidneys a little more narrow while you're at it? Curious if that would make a difference.

looks goofy.
Not a fan of the parting line running across the hood like it does on the F30. Looks cheap. It’s not like that on the current 3 series sedan. |

Agreed with this. They are going to have a bunch of M3 and M4's overpriced and sitting on the lots next year. No one is going to want an overpriced sedan or coupe with an ugly grille. Plus these are regular production vehicles so they will of course depreciate fast. Maybe there will be a faster mid cycle refresh to fix the grille.

As an aside, Scott, how is the mood in bmw these days for this grill? Optimistic? Blissful ignorance to the responses? |

I’m hoping bmw have built a car worthy of the ///M3 badge, the G20 has earned excellent reviews, so things should be good for the top of the range cars. You’ve got to say there is a LOT of negative vibe about the big grille from owners and the motoring press - that has got to hurt sales at some point.
Apart from the grille the car is very generic, side profile is Audi, rear is Lexus, but god bless bmw for sticking with real exhausts. Interior wise bmw are behind their rivals layout/ displays. More concerning, next MB and Audi are going to be hybrids, M3 and M4’s will look like dinosaurs. In a couple of years someone in bmw will ponder....’wtf were we thinking’.

🤮 This is what happens when you see what they did to the front kidney grills. |

Don't worry... in a few years they will release a M3 Concept Homage Anniversary addition with normal grilles, halogen halos, in a custom silver (but it will be called something fancy like Monaco Stone Pearl flake Competition Silver) ...it will be 175,000 Msrp.
