I like the new headlight design and hope this will carry to the G20 LCI as it is sorely lacking well-defined corona lights.
So what the hell's up with the rear tail lights? I wish BMW could do a very quick about face on it before the official unveiling. Creating a long wheel-base Honda Accord? What are they thinking going away from the typical L shaped design? |

Rear bumper on the other hand would be a challenge as it looks like the curve design on the pre-lci quarter panel appears to have been flattened out, which would make putting an LCI bumper on there look a little off. |

It just needa to be a bit more lowered, shadowline, maybe a splitter and black rims. Then we talking 5 series and a naturally aspirated v8 with at least 290hp or more. 6 speed manual with a lsd.

If I had to choose between the two, I'd definitely go with this the G30's LCI versus the G20's. 8 series has the best current headlight design IMO though. |

Cool. Thanks for sharing OP. I have been looking forward to this reveal for a while. I do like the pre-CLI better. But I dont dislike the LCI. Relieved as many else seem to be it has not adopted the more ludicrous design elements and absurdly large cosmetic grill areas. Its all subtle changes thankfully.

It depends which F10. I prefer LCI although in 2011 was the last year of the N52 in-line 6 528i.

Let the 7er have its own big grille. That was the problem before the 7er LCI... You could not tell it apart from the G30 5er.

I like the E39 but not it's teething reliability problems and brisk upkeep typical of a 20+ year old BMW.

To me this design seems to have been inspired by a modern cell phone, laptop or some kind of tech gadget design for some reason. Same goes to the new X5/X6. I don't know if this makes sense, but their design seems to be too clean for a car.
p.s. taillights are definitely from a Civic. Last edited by Stepanyan; 04-28-2020 at 03:23 PM.. Reason: spelling |

If you take care of these cars they will take care of you. Proof your E60 530i.
