    Yeah this is probably their worst design yet. What ever happened to simple and elegant? I feel they are taking the Audi approach which is not suiting them well. Also the M Performance parts are atrocious. Wth were they thinking?

    BMW has done an excellent job designed ugly ass cars the last 15+ years. I'll give them that.

    My Bangle butt 650iC is not terrible either, but seriously biased as a lifer BMW guy. Note, Honda was just passing through

    not as hideous as i feared. definitely a car that needs a front license plate though
    coupe looks too much like mustang and sedan should be a sloping hatchback.
    drift feature could be cool. gives you a star rating like playstation games do.

    The new M3/4 are comedically ugly. I mean you can’t even be offended or upset. It’s hilarious. They KNOW they’ve released something horrible. Just like Star Wars. Whomever is in charge absolutely hates the very brand they represent and those who love it. However now Star Wars is cleaning house to right the ship. Will BMW ???

    I have a '15 M4 as my daily. I think the hood bulge and small integrated spoiler on the rear decklid make mine much more attractive than the new one. From a side profile the new M4 looks like a Nissan Z humping an Alfa Romeo. Doubt I will upgrade for this

    I think there’s quite a bit of aston vantage in the m4

    Why did they switch from dct to zf 8 speed? Seems to be happening to lot of sporty cars leaving dct only for exotics. Cost cutting?

    The 4Dr looks better than the 2Dr which looks like an Infinity or some Lexus.

    Loving my F80 as a daily and a dogsled. Not a fan of the newer version aesthetics and hardware.

    ZFs have gotten so good, without having the complexity of DCTs, that there's not much performance advantage to DCTs anymore.

    I am a long time BMW guy. I will not own anything built after 2019/20, based on what I am seeing, reading and driving. We have a 2017 G12 and love it. May be our last BMW new car purchase. Cheers!

    Long time buyer and driver of BMW's, but stopped after letting go of my M635csi Euro Model. I could not convince myself to look at them anymore. Perhaps an M3 or M4 but now all I can say is what is in the world happened to the Grill, it looks like Adolph's mustache :eek:
