I have lost all hope on BMW for at least the next 5-6 years. Since they keep dropping bombs like these so all cars will be equally ugly, we can't expect a redesign any time soon. The other problem, I don't think they'd make a huge drastic design change for the next generations either, because...well, look what happened when they tried to do that now.
The 3 series is a great looking car currently and seeing this makes me wonder if I there is some huge practical joke being played on all of us by trying to get us to BUY this crap. I'm ashamed BMW, I'm ashamed. I will never buy a Bangled Bimmer because they ruined beautifully designed cars.

It seems that BMW isnt going the way of convention for car makers. usually they radically redsign a popular car and see what the publics reaction is. thats what toyota did with the SC and the Celica. Both did very well, so they followed that same patteren for the rest of their lineup. Look at the Camry, Solaras, ES, LS... etc. you see lines from the Celica and the SC in all the current cars. (maybe not so much the LS). BMW seems to me that they are going the route of "We like it. So screw public Opinion." I fell in love with the new 7 when it was redesigned, but the others have been taking some getting used to. The 7 to me it seems went from being good, to being even better with redesign. It took a while for me to grab on the the new 5, but with the right body kit, it can look sick as hell. I really am not a big fan of the z4 or the x3. but the 3 series right now to me seems to be MUCH better than this puke.

Looks pretty good. The E39 5 and E46 3 may go down as the two best BMW body styles ever, so it's a real tough act to follow. I'm suspicious of a photochop as well, as I doubt BMW would use "parts bin" lights from the X3; at least I hope they wouldn't...
