Michael. 2313 Report post Posted August 6, 2021 God that thing is horrific. Does it double as a refrigerator, toaster, and dish washer in one? It looks like a second rate appliance. I enjoy seeing all these daft new BMWs as it makes me appreciate the old ones more and more. They were a product of a special time. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jon dee 500 Report post Posted August 6, 2021 Sadly, just when I thought it could not get any worse...... it got worse Seems that the grille is no longer essential for cooling so instead of making it smaller and less conspicuous, it got changed into a styling "design element" that looks like a closeup of a fly's eye !!!!!! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cement 871 Report post Posted August 7, 2021 Agree, disgusting. Its like the designers are all racing each other to implement their vision of the future. Seems a lot of their vision caters to the super rich who are real keen to make sure everyone knows it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael. 2313 Report post Posted August 8, 2021 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kug2uVRbte4 This guy did a reasonable job photoshopping the car to at least look a bit better, still a dorky thing but considerably better than the actual car. Just shows how misguided the designers at BMW are when an internet Photoshop guy can find so many flaws in their actual design and improve them. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
