They have really lost the plot.
The new M2 with the add on MSport carbon bits...what are they thinking? or smoking!

I’m a big BM fan but since the new grille look I don’t like them other than the 4 and 7
I do think they look good but the best ones were the pre 2020 models

I was parked next to a BMW suv EV yesterday, it's that grille, gopping, without it EVs look like a boat but the designer must've been on drugs when he penned that

It’s beggars belief that someone looked at that and said….That’s the one…. Every timeI see a picture of one it looks worse. The only piece of faith I still have in BMW design is the new M2. No big grill and I think it looks fantastic. Best looking M car for some time and has a little of E30 M3 about it with its big wheel arches.

Apparently “chunky SUV comes with a design that has taken styling cues from the M1 supercar but blended that with modern elements” so not only is someone at BMW design stoned but the engineering team is too: It’s the first eco/hybrid M car and it has a twin turbo V8 :p

Marketing BS of the highest order!

If you have to explain your design, you have failed

Most of these are aimed at the Chinese market where they gave a different view on bling. We really aren’t their target market so they probably don’t care what we think.
Apparently it’s very good to drive which has the added bonus of not being able too see it.

That is about as far removed from an M1 as is possible to get. Truly awful. Imagine having to look out onto it every morning.

People who own SUVs do not have an appreciation of vehicular beauty and that's why they don't mind modifying the looks by hitting things with them. Nobheads!
