Dont need to be psychic to look at the prototypes and realize that pretty much only some body lines, side vents, and headlights/ rear lights (but toned way down) will stay.

Why bother? Its such a let down..like with the 8 concept..they do have the opportunity to push design boundaries but choose not to. It seems their design team want something great but they get cut off by execs.

And why did the i8 could be so close to a such immensely aggressive concept and the "normal" line up cant follow more closely their concepts, which arent nearly as dramatic as the i8 concept was?

I still dont like the headlights but theres so much to love about this concept.
Yes must say, concept looks fantastic as per the X2, 8 series etc but when the first models pictures role out in an SE trim, feel it could have been a bit braver. The worlds ready for these car designs now, no need to keep them in concept form.

Bravo on the concept though, fantastic looking car.

EDIT post. Wrote the above before seeing the live pictures. My comments on that car are:-

1)
2) BMW take my money
