I think the biggest problem with the rear is that not only are the taillights just plain too big, it's that they have no sharp corners, they are completely rounded and soft which makes them look bloated and cheap.

Like a girlfriend, looks are subjective right?

I happened to love my X6 when I had it and thought it was a real looker (as did wifey) but that vehicle is heavily criticized by many.

The 2 series? For me there is nothing sexy about it - doesn't stir my soul like I want a car to do appearance wise - might be a hoot to drive though

Going to have to see one of these up close and for real..
