BMW styling seems so out of new ideas that this is where they're left to try and do something "interesting".

except for the "kidneys", I like it. It's hard to get past those nostrils though, especially you realize they will be mostly closed off

Can you imagine the board room meeting that signed off on that design.  Someone had a feeling he was a short timer and went all in on what is going to go down in BMW history as an epic Gen "something" statement.

The up side is going to be the after market sea of fixes.  Let's see how long it takes for the first one to get released.

Kind of like Mr. Potato Head.  What was in that company kool-aid?

I guess it for people who have a BMW, but really want a Chrysler 300?

Combined with only incremental drivetrain improvements, this will be great for the value of my F80...

“Beaver teef”

The everyday driver podcast has had some things to say about this. It’s bad.

Meh, look at all the grief Bangle got. In 20 years I'll be thrilled to buy a clapped out 200Kmile one for $3500

I hope the aftermarket helps them out soon. R&D should already be underway.

The experimental program that provided the exterior designer department with large doses of LSD in an effort to make them more creative has not worked out as well as upper management had hoped.

At least it’s still a car and hasn’t morphed into an SUV.

I'm hoping they come full circle, go back to pre-war grills.
