The M3 looks like a real bmw. M4 looks like an imposter bmw siting next to it when viewing from the rear.

Blows my mind that people are still questioning whether or not these are the real cars. Personally, I'm in on the styling. I get that it is extremely polarizing but I wanted something more aggressive from BMW and I think they've done well. Honestly, I can't wait to see them in person. Prior to these pictures, I figured I would be more into the M3 but after seeing these, I'm back on an M4.

My thoughts- Looks very aggressive and looks new and modern. I really like it

It's not as beautiful or elegant as the F8x, but I think it was time for them to switch it up, and now it looks very unique. People were complaining that the new G2x, weren't "BMW" enough, so they decided to go drastic.

At the end of the day, we're doing exactly what BMW wants us to do-talk about their product.

the teasers had CF inserts in the lower vents. I think the original teased pics had some M-performance parts on them.

Those plastic wheel arches are due to regulations, and probably had to be introduced after the design was finalized.

Designs come and go, so I'll look on the bright side and use this opportunity to try out another brand. On the other hand, there are other options in the BMW line-up. The new 3er isn't that bad, except it has grown too large for my taste. There's also the 2er, which handles like the old 3er. I can't keep my eyes off the Lexus LC500, so saving up for that beauty.

Absolutely hilarious responses from most. This already makes the f80 look outdated. If this offends you, get a model 3, there's no hole in the front 🤣

this all feels like a bad joke. I'm hoping it's better in person. Maybe all black.

Perfect car to get in black. And make sure any and all trim is black. Hides all the hideous body lines.

Who really uses a front plate anyway? lol
There are many states that fine tremendously if you don't have a front plate. Iowa being one of them which is where I'm from.

Lol at people comparing it to their favorite highly modified LCI CS model slammed to the ground with aftermarket oss headlights etc. 🤡

Let’s not forget where the F80 came from



Hardly the dubsesd car we’re all pretending it was.

With that said, the new design is pretty bad. And it’s not even the grille. The front bumper design actually offends me more.
