So which part of this car is to appeal to the Chinese market? Because I swore that was directed at the large grilles when the G8x came out...

BMW's pedigree is built on their performance...which it will continue to thrive and beat out its predecessors and competition.

"Stuck in the past" isn't a cop out. Have you seen Frank's Youtube channel? A majority of his videos are reassessments of 20, 30, 40+ year old car designs or analyzing his PAST designs. The man loves/lives the past. This is no disrespect to him as he's created a number of wonderful designs...but I couldn't care less what he thinks of a 2022 2 series BMW.
Lexus has already proved that there is no such thing as ugly or bad design when it comes to cars people who like the brand will buy anything. JMHO.

I like the M Performance bits - makes it look more aggressive.
