They’re just trying to recoup the cost of being forced to install turn signals even though their drivers don’t need them.
They’re recouping the costs of hiring an in house orthodontist to fix all them buck tooth grills they made.
They’re hideous. I feel bad for all the people that were finally in a financial position to afford an M3/M4 and have to drive around that monstrosity.
Do they try to fool themselves into thinking it looks good?
I decided to wait until I actually have the money to buy the cars I wanted as a teenager… and now that I have the m9ney, those cars either no longer exist or have been ruined to the point where the spirit of the car that I loved is no longer there. So now I continue to drive my old ass civic and my wife gets a new car every few years instead, while I wait to be further disappointed.
You know you can buy literally the cars you wanted as a teenager right?
Staying on the BMW thread, you can get a mint E46 or E9X M3 for a fraction of the cost of the new ones. Just gotta find one where the owner has taken care of it and kept service records.
Obviously, but the hope was to buy the car new one day. If I were to buy a used car, it’d be a different type of car entirely that I’d be buying - ie a viper or older NSX instead of a new STi. The e63 wagon is ugly AF and I wouldn’t trust any used E55. If we have another kid, I’m buying a minivan though and there isn’t anything my wife can do to stop me!
Preach
I mean the 3/4 is… questionable. But have you seen the 7/X7…? Not to mention the godawful monstrosity that is the XM? Like… what the actual fuck were the designers thinking? And moreover, what fucking imbecilic marketing yahoo thought it was a good idea to unabashedly bastardize literally everything that ///M division was supposed to be about since it’s inception? Like, honestly, I don’t view it as a real “performance” (sub)brand anymore. It’s that bad.
Hilarious if you look at the X5 it has a M package… which is just some cosmetics at this point.
I actually prefer the 7 series over the 3 series looks. They’re both ugly, but at least the grill on the 7 series fits on the front of the car. The 3/4 series has to extend the hood upwards to fit the grill.
😔 I really wanted an M4 but my oh my are they fugly.
What’s sad is that the motor is amazing, and the rear end and 3/4 view is beautiful. That front though instantly ruins it. It could have been an amazing car, but that front is just awful.
My running theory for Audi is they started uniquely animating their indicators so people would use them. Not because they should, but because it made them feel special. Thus reducing the stereotype before getting to BMW levels.
That’s class.
I’m driving BMW and use turning signals 🙈
Of course a BMW driver would be driving while commenting on the Internet.
You are absolutely right 😁
I use my left one. My right one has a fault, it needs replacing but the replacement has the same design fault. So, fuck bm in that regard.
