its not that bad, stop. I am not gonna buy one but this is not bad, the side looks pretty nice, very wide and aggressive.

I think that this car will mod well, nice front splitter and a few choice parts will make it look really nice. I would never pick this color though, it just does not suite the body of the car well.

Good and bad are subjective terms, not objective terms, so yeah, it's that bad [to some, including me].

No amount of performance or even performance for the dollar could make me buy that thing.

I agree, it won't be for everyone and I most likely will not buy it myself but I can see it looking good with some easy changes. Just like the G80 it will grow on people (specially after they drive it since the s58 is just so good).

But yeah personally won't be buying it, it has nothing to do with how it looks but I am almost done paying for my competition, I could eventually sell it and have to put at least 20k more to get the G87 but I much rather take those 20k and get some track oriented mods and have a much better track car that also imo looks better/does not have an horrendous screen inside

You've got one hell of an imagination, I'll give you that. lol

I'll admit that I'm overly concerned with aesthetics, so I still haven't warmed up to the terrible G80 front (the back isn't bad, and on the road it's ok, but it'll never rival an FXX).

BMW will definitely have to get out of this terrible cycle for me to buy one again.

From a couple of people who’ve seen both the F87 and G87 side by side in person (non F87 owners so no bias involved), they said the G87 looks more aggressive and actually preferred it’s appearance over the F87.

I’m curious as to what those “couple of people” you referenced currently drive. Would you define them as car guys?

I can understand that. It does have a look that some may really love. Being an F87 owner, I have to say I like both. I could order a G87 if I want but....I just prefer my F87 styling.and analog like theme. I think I'm just happiest having a car I love like.my F87. But I do like the G87 looks without comparison to my F87.
