Sounds amazing!

Alonso085 · 03-27-2023, 08:23 PM

The more i see it, the less I can’t unsee it. It’s truly god awful looking.

bmellion · 03-27-2023, 08:36 PM

Saw this today…not my cup of tea.

hufington · 03-27-2023, 08:50 PM

As graceful as Herman Munster's shoes.

M2PDX · 03-27-2023, 09:22 PM

$162,000????????????

DaiLyCS · 03-27-2023, 09:35 PM

But, yeah that’s a lot of “dead presidents”

If you haven't seen one in person... don't. It's even worse than in the photos, especially the rear.

Sadly had this same experience, it’s painful to look at.

They honestly should start with a dealer mark DOWN if they want to move these.

M3JetPilot · 03-27-2023, 10:51 PM

The wheels are literally styled off a kids electric toy car. Someone, somewhere in a BMW board room saw this and said, yes, this is what should follow the M1. What the hell?!

TargaM2 · 03-28-2023, 12:06 AM

How many times must this disgusting tank be plastered on the front page…?

I am long a fan of the radical change in BMW styling since about 2017. It I understand the change is the direction cars are going but I’m just not into the Star Wars techy look.

Nordicracer · 03-28-2023, 03:06 AM

Oh and this car is simply hideous, I could finish watching the video.

AP · 03-28-2023, 03:18 AM

Each to their own of course but wtf are bmw doing these days?
It looks like a 9 year old has designed it

LuckyBrand · 03-28-2023, 04:09 AM

I watch his videos on a regular basis and can usually tell when he doesn't much care for a vehicle. I think that's the case here in my opinion. It just costs way to much for what it is. BMW is Joe's bread and butter so he can't be to critical but it is what it is.

The only color I've seen so far where this thing looks good in is all black. But it's just not my cup of tea.

dezzracer · 03-28-2023, 04:41 AM

The overall body shape could work but not in that trim with those wheels. It just does not come together well. No mattter tho. As a guy inching closer to Medicare age I’ll be looking to trade my hard core CS for something more luxurious, goes fast, and looks spectacular. Like a Range Rover. They can actually go off-road too 😆

M3PGH · 03-28-2023, 05:30 AM

get ready for heavy discounts and cheap leases
