Since peeps are listing what they hate or don't like, here's my list of what I do like.
-love the kidney grill, the inside vent pattern detail is cool.
-I like the headlights, switches things up for a change a la the Z4
-I like the power dome…adds some soft aggression
-love the metal stamping, the front fender bulge slowly disappearing into the door is superbly executed
What'll take some more time for me:
-Rear end/bumper is a tad busy…I prefer the 230i's version
-taillights I'll need to see in person
-large side sills are a tad clunky/chunky compared to the rest of the taught design
-effing weight distribution seems like it's inching more and more away from 50/50
Overall I love it. BMW's still making a vehicle in this segment so I shan't complain (much) 🙂
