It can look absolutely horrid yet brand zealots will still fork over cash.

Stop equating strong sales to anything of substance. If you like a broadly hated design just say it. No need to use a meaningless argument to support it.
Thank you for that thoroughly confusing response.

I have no opinion on this design, it's a test mule. I'm just suggesting the car will sell well.

You're suggesting I like a broadly hated design, ie, the g80? If that's your statement, I would say that the term "broadly hated" is a huge exaggeration. The vast majority of the public loves the G80 (driving around in one is an insane experience, people have universally positive responses in person), even if many long time BMW enthusiasts/consumers don't care for the front fascia, weight gain, etc.

If I am making an incorrect assumption about your inference please correct me.
The car is ugly dude get over it. I love how the people who bought the new M3/M4 are trying so hard to defend it. You bought it for the performance point blank period. And I guarantee if bmw had a package for a better looking grill everyone who bought it would have paid the price. So stop arguing.
A very subjective statement.

Most people I know that have seen the M3 in person actually like it. I personally think it looks awesome, and the performance, interior, tech is next level. The grille is functional for cooling and IMO makes the front end look that much more mean and aggressive.

To the people that haven't gotten over it yet I say keep on sleeping..
There are plenty of people who have changed their minds about the car after seeing it, but BMW's own research showed it that only 20% of people liked the design. This comes straight from Dukec. The assertion that nobody likes the look is ridiculous, but so is the one that the only people who dislike it are a portion of the BMW community who can't get over changes from BMW's traditional design approach.
