I hope so, for the resale value.

I've had quite a bit of interest in my F80 which I'll be selling shortly. All the buyers have said they wanted a f80 over the G8x design. So at least in the short term there's an issue.

Just like the Bangle but, the grills will eventually fade away.

Based on what we have seen with the G42, seems the G87 will retain its sanity.

I've watched about 8 videos of the new M3 and M4. I have to say I now really like them a lot. Video is way better than photos. I expect real life is something else again. The previous model suddenly looks rather dated. If I was in the market for a 5 or 6 series size car I'd go for one.

The new 2 on the other hand is looking very unappealing. But maybe it will change. Still, it will be previous 4 series size. Unless BMW go into decimal places for model names in the future, folk that like smaller cars are out of luck.

I like the 21 M3/M4 competition. The interior, carbon trim, CF seats and CF exterior is IMO one of the best they have made.
I have not owned an M3, I think id rather buy an M3Competition than another M5. That 500 hp is a monster.

Yes. I agree. The 5 is now the 7.
