If I had that opinion on the car I wouldn’t have purchased it in the first place. Life is too short to spend a lot of money on a car you don’t love driving. Doing mods is one thing, but if you think the car is a total mess then buy something that’s not. You can’t polish a turd as they say. I guess that user only cars for the “badge”? |

E class (yawn) GS (old and gone after 2020) A6 (closest and better in some aspects, but if you've driven one, it doesn't measure up in dynamics) Ghibli (again, maybe does style and engine note better, but fails in other aspects) Like others have said, if you want pure driving, get a porsche, but don't complain about price or not having space for things if you get a 911...

China is simply the biggest market, so the one to target and to be in, yep BMW is simply no longer a premium brand but volume one just like most makers anyway.

Large kidney grill for example, in China consumers looks for luxury and all and not for sporty looks & design .. hence BMW and others always added a stretched model to the fleet not to be seen in any other markets.

Wow, cant believe BMW wants be just another car company. They've trashed their heritage and replaced it with some watered down design by people who have clearly no vested interest in BMW as an icon. But if this is what people want, BMW is willing to get down on its knees and beg for it.

The lights and that uneventful, borderline flat sheet of aluminium hood are killing me. This car is getting more and more boring with every iteration.
F10 still turns heads. The G30 blends in nicely with previous gen Camrys of the road. Zero road presence. ...but cant beat the BMW leases LOL
