That 2021 4 Series Grill

Post by Kenny Blankenship »

I heard a pretty good analogy about this today. They've gone from a kidney grill to a lung grill... :cool:

As someone waiting for F80 values to fall, I hope there are a lot of people whom like it. But I doubt it. I’ve read BMW intended it to be a polarizing look, and I think it worked because I find it utterly, humorously, hideous. Lungs? Coffins?

The other day I saw a 10 year old A4, with its grill-to-the-ground front, and though, oh, that’s the look BMW is going for... IDK

A few thoughts...

Imagine getting run down by this car and the imprint it would leave on your arm if that thing hit you!

I don't see it as full circle -- the old metal grills were beautifully oval and proportional to the fenders and lights. It really works!

But on the new plastic car, it looks like a huge pair of nostrils, to go with the large nose, the large, snobby nose that says, I OWN A BMW. SEE ME!!!!!

So my vote would be: no.
