I love the design but I feel the tail lights could be more angular and need a silver strip or something running through them. Right now they just look like red blobs.

Looks good but the new m performance font is absolutely horrible.

Don't like the side m-performance stickers. Looks like eBay item. Tail lights could be smaller, but not much else to complain, I need to buy the next M5...

Why can't they come out with designs that gives a love at first sight vibe anymore?!

bmw has been lacking in the design department. Every car they came out with i had to "adjust" to it instead going "wow that is beautiful". Everything is copy and paste now. Going the audi route...

The new 3 series will probably be a baby 5 , just like the way the new 5 is a baby 7. These designs will get outdated real fast especially the damn taillight design gives out a "cheap" and outdated look already

In my opinion the F10 was love at first sight. However I do agree this one isn't. BMW needs to bring back the full headlight rings. These rings going into the grill, not a huge fan.

Not a fan of the riced out front lips and black side vinyl.

But the wheels and proportions are incredible ! This car will take the mantle of best looking bmw yet.

Nice find

Love the G30, but have to say M-sport and M-performance have some room for improvement.

1. The front lip should be like the f30 one, not the f32. Why? Because of this awful gap between the lip and the wheel arch, so clearly seen on white cars.

2. The black M-perf decal looks questionable on all cars, but on f30 and f20 it is at least fitted to a real side sills shape. Why does the car need this decal when the sill shape doesn't suppose to?

I really don't like the plastic side skirts at all. Hope the m5 goes body colored, as its likely my next ride.

The side view is not very appealing. Fender slot is awkwardly low doesn't give the car a balanced feel. The front bumper sticks out awkwardly.

Rear looks good!

Thanks for adding the video. Looks like the diffuser is CF too.
The brakes looks huge in the front and I see new steering wheel too.
