I feel the same way too man. Wish they would just go back to the hooded design of the nav screen.

Personally can't get over the look of the crappy rear section of the car though... Looks like a Honda.

Also why put a cheesy shinny "M" on the seat. Emboss ///M would be much nicer.

BMWs, in general, age well compared to a lot of cars in terms of design. I still like the e60 M5, and even the e39 M5, while a bit dated now, still looks good. I nicely kept e46 M3 still looks great, although I think the e36 definitely looks dated at this point.
This is a great post. You said it so perfectly, that there is nothing else to say
For me, new m4 looks better, not by much, but it has more agressive style, which i like for a high performance car. Also, improved looks will not be the reason why i will trade my e92m3 for the new m4.
It looks like this one will destroy the current model in every performance category.

I agree, looks like space gray which is close to the silver gray...depending on the light. Silver gray is my all time favorite color! Here's a side by side with my old e46 and first e92. Similar looking color here.

Thank god some of you feel the same way I do about the new m4 styling. I think the front is hideous and I really want to love it but it hasn't grown on me at all. I just think it's too busy..it doesn't flow well to me.

i have a lot of car friends that i see often and we talk cars all the time. everything single one hates the new nav location. (so i know i am not crazy)

my mother drives a F30 335i, i have driven the car often. i have real experience with the new models and i simply hate the F30/80 nav location!

honestly i get into these new F line BMW models and i say wtf was BMW thinking. i mean some of the new stuff is great, but some is simply not.

yessir Granted the screens are way larger but it cheapens the overall feel IMHO. The sunken-in and screen hood looks 100x better. Plus it'll be harder to do dvd in motion without attracting the attention of you know who..

At least put someone like Chris Harris or some other person otherwise I'll believe opposite of what they say - it's all propaganda.

I would have much preferred that the new design language made me weak at the knees. But to each their own.

+1. I agree, it is overwrought. It just doesn't flow. Lacking class.
