It is only self brainwashing. It´s like to be alone in a cabin for several weeks with one ugly girl...

Still wouldn't hit it if she were truly ugly.

Not following. The NEW 4 series, all of the 4 series, has the huge silly grill. The current 3 series does NOT. The alleged NEW M3 does. Make sense?

I repeat, go ask BMW. The M3 has shared the coupe front end since 2008, thus, the NEW M3 has the same front end as the NEW M4 (..which has the larger grilles just as the new 4 coupe and i4 have them). Make sense (...obviously not!!)? This is a an approach that BMW began 12 years ago. You should know this already.

I would take the ugly girl before the ugly car...The latter only cost some(many) Gin&Tonic and you can go home alone...The new 4 and G80....no way...

Thanks. I did not consider this combo nor could I see it on the images. Now it totally makes sense.

We've seen assembly line leaks that had the intake slats exposed but it was speculated that the mesh possibly wasn't installed yet. Now we're seeing running mules, some with and some without.

At least this is one 'tradition' BMW kept for the g8x

I was talking about the Bronco. Ford was aiming at owners of the Wrangler and they got what they wanted.

Good spot!

To me it looks way nicer with the mesh. Whatever version that is

Really?

These wheels they looks like they copied & pasted their own previous design, from the 666Ms.

Looking good! Can't wait to see what the base/pure has for options.

Even the rear view mirror "wings" and the rear quarter panels are different. Though, the quarter panel on one just looks like a pre-production version.

I like the new wheel design better than the 666M's. The new wheel has better spoke design, a better design around the lug nuts, more concavity (...the 666M's lack concavity), etc. Did you guys complain when BMW outfitted the E9X ZCP with nearly the same wheel they used for the E46 ZCP?

I have no beef with the either of them, they look fine.

My only issue is that the 666Ms are kind of heavy but whatever..

Just pointing out that BMW kind of lack creativity by basically recycling the same design but I can live with them and would look so much prettier if they would just lose a few pounds..

I like these as well, I just hope they will also offer a version other than black.

Assuming that they make it to actual production, of course.

It's looking better everyday doesn't it? It's a new philosophy to further distance M cars and judging by the M3/M4 it's working. The jury may be out on the grill?
But I am confident that people will come around to BMWM's thinking.

[stein_325i]

Further distance M cars yet the M4 and basic 430i share a very similar monstorous grill??? :
