Yep, they can keep it. I might have been an X7 and/or M4 buyer at some point but not with this new styling. Bought a Range Rover last month instead......I vote with my wallet!

did you see the price tag for it? Starting in the $80k range .... i don't think so. My X5 45e is basically loaded @ $85k and i love it .... wouldn't get me to buy this thing with that terrible design. What is BMW thinking? I would buy an electric car all day long given my experience with our current PHEV, however not when it looks like crap. BMW .... We want the ultimate driving machines that we are used to, just electrify them keeping with the historical design language that is the hallmark of the brand ... forget this crap

Hopefully BMW doesn't start competing with Lexus for the ugliest grill on the road.

That thing is butt ugly fer sure and low sales will prove it.

I would happily pay the price and think the range isn't terrible (so long as the performance is on-par with comparable V8 ICE at that range) ... but the design ... .woof! Butt-ass ugly! who is designing this shit?

It bums me out when I put the car cover on the M40i in the garage. This new monstrosity would best be always covered.

That Grill Guy Should be Fired

The designer guy in Munich killed the M3/M4 with that hideous snout. The car gets great reviews and in a market where no one is buying sedans and coupes the last thing BMW needed to do was make the new $80K M3/M4 ugly. Ive been a fan if the M3 all my life but I have zero desire to buy a new one. Such a shame. The Audi and MB dealers must be so pleased!
