This is the illuminated one, yeah? They look decent in person, I saw a few of the pre-prod grills at $WORK. I don't think it was worth how much went into making them though. A lot of individual components in that grille, and an absolute astonishing amount of development had to be done by suppliers.
- petre 6y agoIlluminated? It's clearly for the Chinese market then. I'm talking about the grille on the iX. I wonder what's next, an electric X6 with this grill, the pinnacle of ugliness? Compare that with the M2 which is a looker and a badass car.
- asciimike 6y agoSpeaking as an M2 owner (and an E36 owner before that), can confirm it's an excellent looking and performing car--arguably the last "enthusiast" car BMW has produced. I'm also pretty annoyed with the current direction, and if I get another car (performance or otherwise) it's very unlikely to be a BMW.
- enos_feedler 6y agoLikewise, I just picked up a 2021 M2 which I heard will switch to something new in 2022. I love the car. You can feel all of the engineering and craft in the driving experience.
- asciimike 6y agoThe G87 will be bigger, heavier, and more powerful (B58 or S58 likely), but will definitely lose the feel the F87 platform has. It's a shame :(
