Very nice render! props!
But it did confirm my dislike of the connected kidneys. IMO it just looks weird, especially on a car this size... The sharpened angles also seem to have a disconnection in terms of design with the rest of the car. |

Great work! Hoping there is at least some daylight between the grills... The GTS hood looks great as well, too bad that is most likely a no go. I am a fan of the 763M wheels, If I end up on liking the 788M's I think I'll pick up a set.

I googled "Gurney Flap BMW" to understand the design. If you do it as well you'll see what happened :facepalm: |

Many (not all) will consciously or subconsciously hate the new car, but they will eventually come around.
Denial – It's not going look as good. It's going to cost at least $15-20k more. Anger – Why didn't they give the original version M Mirrors, better seats, larger brakes... This is BS. Bargaining – Personally I'm glad I got the pre-competition car, cost less, better overall looks, MG color available, blah blah blah. Depression – Not much said, they will spend less time on the forum not wanting to hear about the new car. Acceptance – Wonder how much I can get if I trade my car? |

For the record: two excerpts from the M2 Technical Training 2015 (that can be found here): Pre-LCI M2: Many ///M cars got a Gurney flap. For the E46 M3 CSL BMW M redesigned the boot line, as to 'integrate' a Gurney flap (when compared to the regular E46 M3):

I guess the people that didn't trade the E46 for a E92 or E92 for a F82 are all going against the grain and never had to even start the coping process, those rebels! New car/design direction from BMW. Must be better. Must like. Must believe previous gen is dated. Don't want to anger the Bimmer overlords now. Last edited by OG///M; 04-02-2018 at 12:58 PM.. |
