  • A Great Car BUT

    Having trouble getting beyond its huge grille. We only buy vehicles that aesthetically are appealing to us. This one not at all. A visual veto even though a superb vehicle.

    Do you like it? Is it okay, that you could get used to its looks? Do you own one?

    I do not know one person who likes the looks of that car. It is truly "butt ugly". I think that, in terms of design, they've lost their way.

      Having actually owned BMWs for a couple decades, I personally don’t like the Front Grill, but if my Wife liked it I know what I’m getting with a BMW.

      If she doesn’t get an EV, she will certainly get another BMW 5 or 8 Series.

        The only thing I can say about the front of that car is that in person.......

          I have to agree. Not very appealing

            Is that the M4 Competition model? Didn't someone recently post a video comparison of the C8 Stingray and this car?

              That will never get my approval. I have to agree the design plain sucks.

                Hi Northwoods, please allow me to introduce myself. I like the new large kidney grille. It's the first BMW that has appealed to me in about a decade.

                  Definitely not a fan. I prefer the looks of the F80 and F84 from 2015 up.

                    It’s a bit “busy”…….was it designed by the designer of the rear of the C8? 🤷🏼‍♂️😂

                      While it's not my favorite BMW look, I'm sure it will grow on me. Judging from the number I see running around here, BMW doesn't have to worry about market acceptance. Local dealer inventory ranges from slim to none....

                        I think you’re right….at some point the smaller grilles will look silly. 🤷🏼‍♂️

                          Where would a front license plate go?

                          We recently added a Lexus RX350 to the fleet, and it has a similar large grill that took some getting used to.

                          Maybe these manufacturers want larger grills in anticipation of more global warming.

                            Maybe this would be an improvement. Nah. Worse. UGG.
