It looks like the M-Sport front end balances out those massive grills a bit and blacking them out will probably help a bit. All that chrome makes them stand out more than they need to. Trying to be positive

hmmpphhh... Holding my breath.
I hope I can hold off and wait until the X5M.

Seems like you will be able to toggle off AWD to RWD like the new F90 M5.

Exhaust sounds great.. I'm just worried about the huge grill. I'll wait and see what the Msport line looks like before I pass judgement. Heck if the Msport looks good I may end up trading for the 50i this time around.

I wonder if that's the MPE.

I'm hoping it's great but I don't intend to trade in my F15 for at least 4 years so will have plenty of time to decide if I like the G05

If I like it, then I'll wait for the 2nd or 3rd year production for sure

Conveniently, my CPO warranty runs out in 2020.

Security_IE · 05-23-2018, 03:02 PM

I need to see the grills with the whole vehicle in perspective. The shot at 17 seconds really makes things look hideous, but the shot at 24 and 33 don't. Check out how much camo is on the side at 45 seconds. All I see is screws holding on fake panels. I'm looking forward to an M Sport reveal. I think the shape is still being hidden well.

I might even like grills with body color trim and black blades. That would shrink the perspective of size as opposed to complete blackout.

Zamorskii · 05-23-2018, 04:20 PM

Looking exciting. Can't wait to see somebody drive it like in that video, most likely in one of the many FailArmy videos

Wavy · 05-23-2018, 05:11 PM

My guess is that it'll look very similar to the F15. Which is good. BMW hasn't really done a lot when it comes to redesigns lately.

Wouldn't be surprised.
Seems like G01 shares same suspension setup as F25/F26.

Yeah. I don't think it will be as dramatic a change as from previous models.
