Took this on our first camping trio to Joshua Tree. What a beautiful place, why didn't we come here sooner?!

It's an acquired taste. Even Chris Harris said he thinks we could very well look at this car down the line and admit it actually looks quite good… and he hates the front as well.

It's definitely eye catching and controversial, which is what I guess BMW were going after. I mean, you defiunitely see it coming towards you from a mile away and instanly know what it is. Like you, I love the whole look of the car, but I just can't like that front end either. To me, it just feels like what a bad chinese aftermarket rip off of what a real bumper for this car should look like. To me, the lines on the front are just too sharp and straight compared to the smooth gentle curved lines from the bonnet all the way to the back of the car. It just doesn't make sense to me. I hate to say it, but if I had a car like this, I'd be seriously thinking of putting a nice aftermarket bumper on it to make it look better, even if I had to go to a fabricator and get them to custome make one.

I love the aggressive front. I haven't seen a grill that works quite as well as stock, except maybe the Vorsteiner, but even then, stock looks more cohesive.

It's like drawing a mustache on the Mona Lisa with a magic marker.

Can you do it? Sure. But you're destroying a work of art in the process.
