Dear BMW:

I understand you don't care at all, but no car you could ever make will redeem you for perpetrating this stinking pile of crap on the world.

Seriously. That thing should be classified as a hate crime against vehicles and an act of war against taste.

Every time I see a new M3 I think of nutsack face bad guy from the Star Wars cantina.

The first time I saw a picture of that car, I thought it was a photoshopped making fun of the previous already too big grill. Someone took the last grill and said, "Hold my beer." It looks like something you would see on a Lemons car.

Not the most handsome vehicle I've ever seen.

By a long shot.

I wonder if the gold accents are BMW or aftermarket? Just getting rid of them might lower the pain level from god-awful to merely ugly. Then again, consider how much run Lexus got out of Predator-face and how much we hated it.

I see an awful lot of Pontiac Aztec there, just an uglier face.

So, I understand about the "Hofmeister kink."

My question now is, Whose kink is this? (And is there some form of therapy that could help?)

Someone needs to do an intervention. Please, is there anyone who can make them stop this behavior?

That's the German kink they don't talk about .

The BMW board members that approved this design should be outed.  

This is a great example of a group of the board smoking a fat one before a really important meeting.

Could their be a more deliberate example of corporate suicide.  No?

Dear BMW,

Why do you hate the sighted? Did we hurt you somehow?

I saw one in traffic the other day. I came up from behind it and thought ohhh, what's this? Looks pretty good. Got to the front and nearly vomited.

 

Seriously, whoever is directing their current design needs to be fired. Have you seen the new 7 series? It's like a squared-off pile of vomit on wheels.

As grotesque as it is, it's no worse, and possibly less offensive to my senses,  than a modern Toyota/Lexus

1) I hate it 

2) I also love it because it's a departure from the boring majority of the vehicles on the road today. 

3) Ok it can be a departure but why does it have to be so horrendous?

Hell of a marketing ploy tho.

As ugly as it is, everyone and their grandmama is hopping on to comment on every social media post BMW makes about how ugly it is, and even if 99% of the people discussing how ugly it is, it still seems to be selling *shrugging emoji*.
