Why no side air breathers on G20?
Pretty much every new BMW, e.g. X5, Z4, 8-series, has front side air breathers. Why didn't they put it on the G20? Not "premium" enough?
Even if they don't work I'm a bit salty that they didn't include them. |

...But they are oftentimes fake (no opening), so yes it seems like they are basically useless aerodynamically despite what BMW has been claming

Yeah like the 4-series LCI being fake. But still, throw us a bone BMW. If I'm going to pay $60k for a M340i I want my fake air breathers

See I would love my $1.28 settlement check but my car doesn't even have the air breathers so I can't be part of the class

No side air breathers, but the body shape has that style, almost like they could be there in specific models?

Looks far better without it. 99% of the time they're fake so they look even cheesier than they would if they were functional. They're right up there with the M Performance decals on the side skirts.

I personally think side vents look like trash.
