Well I agree on the 2 series, I find it terrible too!
I know I’m biased but I love the face down, ass up lines of the F82, the G is just slab sided and drab to me

Black’s the only colour for them, hides the lines! Lack of bulge on the bonnet saddens me

That colour is certainly doing it no favors.
Yes mate
Just remember, this was not the work of a single person - a team of design, marketing and senior management signed this off.
With that in mind, I’d be in full support of an independent investigation into the water supply at BMW HQ to determine if it has possibly been spiked with LSD.
Too early to point any fingers, but Audi have been strangely quiet about the matter.

Have to say I’m in the minority but I quite like it. BMW need to break out the design a bit as the front of their cars were so similar for years, at least the larger grilles are bringing a newer fresher look
What I don’t like is the crazy pricing which is way out of league. Having said that with a severe lump of depreciation this forum will be full of them several years down the line for sure.

One part I do like is the way the flared arches step out from the headlights. That's nice and aggressive.
The rest looks absolutely stinking though.

Front windscreen looks ok too, to be fair, I have zero issues with it.

I see Joe Achilles has been given a 420i press car, I’m interested to see how “Mr BMW“ puts a positive spin on it.
The 2.0L is woefully underpowered for a start, 7.5 to 62mph is shocking
Bavarian have a 430i with a lot of options for sale at the moment, taking aside the looks I would really like to drive one. One positive that seems to be coming out is that the quality and luxury in the new 4 series is leagues ahead of the previous generation.

I’ve lost all respect for him, he’s ordered an M3 without driving one, after preaching he much prefers the M2 over the current cars, must be dirt cheap or a free long termer imo, BMW seem to have all the influencers on side which is a smart move really
It’ll be a fantastic car despite it’s +200kg weight gain, still don’t want to look at it though, at £90k for a well spec’d one it shouldn’t be a grower, it should be wow

I can't say I love it yet but it has grown on me and if it didn't look much different then I would have been disappointed.
More notably any non BMW or car people that have mentioned the new 4 series to me all think it's class and love it. You'd near think they want to appeal to a new audience... It will be interested to see how this sells compared to the f series

I suspect he is getting a very good deal on it, he has enough of a youtube following now to get manufacturers attention.
You think 7.5 is 'shockingly' slow for the least powerful version?

It's slow for a 2.0L turbocharged engine.
the 430i is also a 2L turbo, so if they make the 420i quicker, they would just be hurting the 430i sales. Im sure the have designed the 420i to fit just where they want it to sit in the market alongside the equivalent Merc or Audi etc..
