Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Front page of a very famous SoCal BMW dealership's website. Thoughts? I think I like it.

More ... (source: Instagram) ... not the real deal though

atl_1M · 04-15-2022, 04:46 AM

Surprisingly I actually really like it. I think it'll look even better in a darker color

stein_325i · 04-15-2022, 01:35 PM

The E38 gets more and more beautiful with every passing day.

Zodiac · 04-15-2022, 03:09 PM

What I can tell you is (as usual) M-Sport version looks a lot better. With some additional items below the 2nd headlights (bottom one), its a lot more aggressive. But I am not sure if those decals will be always black or that was some special package that I've seen on a gray car. Full black would suit it perfectly.

Vucko · 04-15-2022, 03:52 PM

Also, from @wilcoblok, there is slight peak into rear

EDIT: dont know why pictures is thos wierd, its not like that on my phone

scoobysaurus · 04-17-2022, 02:04 AM

I'm just glad the kink lives to see another day.

Trimark · 04-17-2022, 01:57 PM

Panoramic sunroof and 31 inch screen will be featured in the new i7

The back is decent, although not distinctly BMW in my opinion, could get confused for another brand, and the front is... well you know how the front is.

atl_1M · 04-18-2022, 04:40 PM

Hoping M sport package is much more aggressive. That rear looks too plain.

dr_frankfurter · 04-19-2022, 01:15 PM

BMW has had some of the worst press photos for the past few models (G42, X7 LCI, etc). Hopefully some clear photos tomorrow will make the rear look less underwhelming. I expected some type of light bar or trim to connect the tail lights together. Looks pretty plain otherwise.

At last the cup holders aren't by your feet, unlike the iX!

Not sure I like the back of the car though, but the reclining/extendable seats look very nice (for others)

advantage20 · 04-19-2022, 05:42 PM

Peugeot 605 vibes

stein_325i · 04-19-2022, 06:12 PM

I'm sorry, but the front of the car looks horribly grotesque and overwrought, especially that M-Sport front end. On top of that the lines and headlights don't flow with the rest of the front end. Interior seems generally nice, but there's something off that I can't put my finger on, seems very similar in some ways to the new Genesis G90, and the door panels look a bit plain.

am3r1ka · 04-19-2022, 07:15 PM

Did BMW actually take that meme of the grill seriously because that grill is ridiculously oversized?

yousefnjr · 04-19-2022, 07:30 PM

Need more pics but I’m diggin that sport front end and interior. Black on red would be fly as fuck.

Penguino · 04-19-2022, 08:31 PM

Interior is lit AF.

Rear has some weird E60 vibes.

Game · 04-19-2022, 09:56 PM

That front end is really really bad. The rear screams Acura to me. Interior looks pretty good.
