Aside from the rear... I had an loved the F16, including this angle, but something needs to be added or removed on the G06/F96... I'm just not sure what...

IOMG is NOT a good color on the X5M. Perhaps with bronze or silver faced wheels it would look better, but the black ones just don’t look right with this hue.
I know I’m in the minority on this forum but I just don’t get the appeal of the Brooklyn Grey (is it Brooklyn?) that is on the X6M either. Looks like someone put a gloss coat over cement. Probably why it is called Brooklyn Grey. Body shapes look good overall though on both. Looking forward to seeing them in other colors. |

Looks amazing. IOMG is stunning, I'm biased.

Like the color as well. Maybe the front fascia will grow on me, but it just looks like the designers didn't know how to make the previous version look better so they just accentuated all these weird angles....like lexus did with their predator setup. I do like that the grill is going more horizontal though.

This X6M is fuego, as long as the headlights are turned off... Definitely prefer the current Gen headlights. Horizontal Grille is a good look on this though.

For those of you who are smarter than I, does anyone know from what they have seen and read if these changes will affect aftermarket parts? Specifically, will new front lip kits need to be fabricated or will current aftermarket lips fit? Same question goes for lowering springs.
One thing that sucks with model changes is waiting for aftermarket parts to be made for them. Thanks! |

Wish I could go individual route with IoMG on the new M2 . Sadly this isn’t an option

I don't understand what they're going for here. Lexus inspired designs?
