We’ve seen the G80/82. BMW will sign off on any horrid design.

The rear bumper on this latest abomination looks like a TIE fighter.

It is, we have known for months that the rocker panel would go up into the rear quarter panel. It’s visible in the multicolored camo vehicle that various automotive press drove in May.

Edit: Added BMW supplied photo.

I doubt this is the final product. For comparison, this is the pretty conventionally looking rear of the prototype in Shmee’s video.

I am actually embarrassed for BMW … wtf are they thinking?

looks like cheap kit car

and why make protrusions on rear bumper so that they are scrapped and dented with minor contact? unbelievable …

This is what happens when you let someone who wears purple and blue suits to approve and design cars never goes well.

Looks terrible. Hopefully this is not actual final product. As many pointed out above rear looks different. I guess we will see.

Seriously! This could be a potential leak purposely leaked to throw people off. Also, this picture could be easily well over a year old, and this could be their generation one prototype.

So the blue is nice, but I like blue cars.

The angles of the photos aren't the best.

I still want to drive it, sometimes beauty is on the inside.

I think it's design language fits with that of the G80/G82 for what that is worth.

It'll look properly juvenile with the M-Performance rear wing on the back.

I had high hopes for this, but BMW did what BMW does ( in recent time), kill the hope.
