Perhaps it is just me, but the front dual kidney design is getting old IMO. I understand it is a BMW signature style, but........ Still, it is a handsome car.

Doesn't look too bad but it isn't as good looking as the E46.

Count me in with the people who like the general shape.......better than any Bangle-ized BMW yet, except maybe for the 1-series.

And......this is the way a new design SHOULD be shown.....unmasked, not with all of that ridiculous bra and body tape nonsense. Kudos to BMW for finally doing it correctly. ....and, of course, to rotaryrock, a new CL member, for posting it.

You're off to a good start at CL, dude.

There have been "spy shots" of this car going around for almost a year IIRC. Maybe you're thinking of the G35 Sedan
