Honestly kind of disappointed, as I was told the lights would be completely different, but it looks good nevertheless. Laser lights are more than likely coming as an option.
Front bumper looks wayyyy more elegant than the spy pics from China. Bottom side vents stick out very far and make the front end look very aggressive. The grill doesn't stick out as far as we have seen; was more of a relaxed shape rather than a cookie cut shape.
The side skirts are body colored and have an interesting shape behind the doors that points upwards and attaches to the rear quarter. Looks good and also interesting. Kind of hard to explain, but it was a relief seeing it body colored. It seems kind of like a piece that will eventually be an M performance part. Can't say I've seen an M car with a side skirt design like this before though.

Interesting. I'm going through the prototype pics again and clearly see what you're talking about with the side skirts. Didn't notice that before. Seems like it'd look odd since there's a gap between where the side skirt goes up the fender and the front door. Wonder why they decided to do this design with the side skirts.
Also, were the vents under the headlights black or body colored?
