Interesting comment, since the first dual headlight BMW was the 320i in 1975. For exceptions since then, check the 8-series, Z1, and Z8.
I understand your comment but how many people were around prior to 1975 purchasing these cars which was 30+ year old individuals who were affluent and successful. The BMW oo=00=oo is what almost everyone on this board knows of. Yes one limited production car z8 which only a very small few could buy had single head lamps. A z4 is obtainable by most bmw buyers so a change from tradition of 42 years is an understandable comment. The fact that this is a cross developed platform with a different company as well as removing an iconic item such as the dual ringed headlights is unsettling.
