As far as the exterior goes ill say 3 things.
1) It looks better in person.
2) It looks much better in darker colors.
3) Im not the biggest fan of the looks either.
Its a funky looking car, but funky gets attention. Ive had people walk into the street in order to talk to me about the car. Its insane. It gets noticed, and thats what BMW wants right now.
However, it drives wonderfully. Its really light on its feet and surprisingly fun to put into a corner. Theres also something fun about opening the door and seeing the exposed CF door frame.
