Great that it seems to not have huge kidneys. Hope that it didn’t grow very much.

These spy shots look like they confirm the earlier leaks being a 2-series and not a 1-series. Rear end looks identical and the camouflage is transparent enough to see the LED rear lights share a similar design.

Taillights ruin an otherwise nice evolution of the 2.

I have to say, the ONE thing I am less than thrilled about with the M2C is that the C pillar is a bit 'abrupt' or 'boxy,' and always felt if it were elongated just a bit - like the M4 - it would be damn near perfect.
From what I can tell, the next 2-series generation has addressed this matter and the C pillar looks spot-on. Throw an S58 under the hood with a few ///M parts and the next generation M2C will be dynamite . . . in fact, it will be the new M4C, provided there is nothing hideous sitting under the camouflage in the front grille area. So far, so good! ///AVM |

The trunk/rear hind quarters looks very weird on this.

Current model in M2 form looks nearly perfect. I don't like the front end of that unmasked car, looks over styled with weird headlights.

Too early to tell, but looks like the corona ring headlights are dead. None on the M5 LCI, none on this. So sad.
Not sure about the lower front bumper lines. Just like all recent releases, very busy. Please no fake intakes. As far as the super wide but not long grills, anything is better than the G8x grills. |
