Nah. I think it's like the Batmobile in the Animated Series.

The next model will have the grills up to the hood, why have air vents on the front when you can have an open engine

Disliked it when Audi did the big mono-gape grill that swallowed the horizontal bumper line. Then Lexus did the big fish mouth. That was worse. All the while BMW maintained its tasteful design, then 2019 happened.

Those customers more inclined toward large, luxury cars tolerate, and probably enjoy the big, shiny grills. If you look at the flagship models for most luxury brands, they usually sport a big, gaudy grill and hood ornament. Given that, the enormous chrome grill doesn't seem so out of place on the 7 series and large suv models. Also consider that emerging markets exert significant influence over design cues, and other aspects of the product line as well. The growth realized from selling more 7 series, x7, and whatever in China outweighs negative feedback from the shrinking enthusiast market - most of which aren't very interested in the x7 or 7 series anyway. Regardless, it's still a fun thread. |

Oh, I don't know... a quick & dirty photoshop with some slats between the X7 headlights matching the lower grille like the old school BMWs + the e30 grill and it doesn't look too bad at all
Integrate it properly and it'd probably look good! Should have done the video with a G20 vs e30 grille though, would have made more sense?! |
