Thanks! Kidneys look a bit "off" on the CP. I like the new rims (in the darker tone) and the new bumper (especially the three inserts which come straight from the Gran Turismo concept back in 2014).
But silver brake calipers for the "Sport" brakes? C'mon...

Cool! It really does a great job of compare and contrast!
I've been slow to accept the new front end, but it has been growing on me. With this GIF showing back-to-back, I can say the new front has finally won me over. I now prefer it. Still up in the air on which wheels I like better, but both are nice (I still prefer the 763M to either though). At least if I don't spec the 763M wheels, I will still be happy with the 788's. I just wish MGM were an option on the Comp. I was hoping to move away from my trend of black cars (4 of my last 5) into something that stayed clean looking for more than 3 seconds, but I guess black it will be once again (unless they release more colors for the 2020 MY).

Under the car 2 black parts make the car lower for many cm almost 6/7 , in the m3 e92 was the same. Not so beautiful this detail and not so confort on the management of the integrity of the front bumper while descending and so on.

I initially thought OG M2's grills looked better. Call me crazy and I know I'm in the minority here but I like these new connected, aggressive-looking grills better now.

I know...
and I like LBB best of all the "colors", but I am a grey/black car guy to the core. The only car I've ever owned that wasn't black (4 cars), white (2 cars), or grey (1 car), was a burgundy 1993 Thunderbird, which I absolutely hated in every imaginable way (long story why I had it in the first place...) Buying a car in a color would be a monumentally traumatic event. That said, if they don't bring back MGM by the time I buy (MY20), I will have to flip a coin between LBB and BSM. I love black cars, but unfortunately BSM hides some of the lovely curvature of the M2's body (and I love me some body curvature!)

I think a lot of us are coming around, now that we're getting used to it.

I like it too. The overall front design just looks more aggressive. In a few years separated grills will look dated as BMW is moving their cars in connected grill direction. 8 series is next, then next gen 3 and 4 series. New 5 and M5 already have a sudo-connected grill.

You should have used the black grilles on the OG for a better comparison.

I bet an IND body color match grill frame for the M2C will be popular. That would lessen the look of the new grill for some.

The new grill looks ugly to me, also on the new 5 series, however I really think they made it right for the new M8 concept with chromes
