- Interior coming straight out of the 2 Gran Coupe. Having to put up with this gimmicky light-up plastic trim instead of carbon fiber like the current model would be very disappointing. BMW is a luxury brand and should offer the option of premium trim pieces like CF, aluminum, or wood

Overall I can live with what I've seen of the styling. BMW's F-chassis cars, for all their faults, nailed the clean classic BMW look. The G chassis cars in comparison all have styling quirks. Some look fine overall (3, 5, X3, X5), whereas others are just bad (4, Z4, 7, M3/4).
Wow! didn't know this, so more weight gain than F30 to G20. Definitely weren't expecting that for an M car.
