BMW is now challenging Lexus for the ugliest front grill !

I suspect my '17 X5 will be my last BMW ........

At least the iX has a grill! I can't get used to looking at cars without grills! How boring and it looks like the factory forgot to add a grill during the assembly...

As a current owner of a 2015 BMW M4 as well as having owned several other “bimmers”, I really don’t like their new design direction. The front grill is one of the ugliest in the industry.

When it comes time to replace my M, I’m likely to go in a different direction.

Grills let in air to flow past the radiator. If there is no radiator . . . air can be handled better resulting in better aerodynamics for better efficiency.

That said, I understand -- you're used to seeing a grill :D

Great! It’s a much better car than the outgoing 4 series. The front grill has been a polarizing design among BMW fans. Some like it and some don’t. Enjoy your 4!

Reminiscent of the “Bangle design” years. I moved away from BMW during those years and purchased a Porsche and a Mercedes AMG.

It’s great to have choices!

Needed AWD as I take it from MN to FL. Otherwise I would've bought the M4. Which is far-far superior.

Lots of SUVs on the roads of North America. Recycling is good for the economy, for creating more jobs, for a cleaner environment, ...all that electric jazz.

We need more battery chargers, and more powerful ships...sorry, chips.
