This grill is far, far larger than anything BMW is doing. It pretty well covers the entire front end. I know it's cool on this forum to hate BMW's latest grilles but let's be a little realistic here. If you hate the BMW grilles, this is a total abomination.

I saw the new S3 in person and that rear bumper plastic shit looks like hell. I don't mind the front bumper and the new proportions look pretty decent. I have a '19 RS3 and love the car but I hate the dealer. Can't get my nav fixed without getting my shit flagged.
Part of me is still tempted to grab a new TTRS and set up a all-out half mile car.

For me it's not the size of the new grills on the M3/4 it's the shape. Everyone is doing large grills, it's just whether it's horrible or not. I just picked up a 2022 RS5 and it has a big grill, but it looks pretty decent (in my opinion anyways).

Biggest cringe for me is when car reviewers say it sounds awesome "a V10 cut in half". I always say, sometimes out loud: "yeah, like a 4 is a V8 cut in half". And that's exactly how they compare and sound. V10s have this raspiness and the 5 inline or V5 have a rumble because it's imbalanced. Awesome sounding though. |

Ehhhhh I dunno. BMW new grill is just awful but goes the impression they tried and failed. Audi grill looks like they just mailed it in and didn’t care. Not sure which is worse LOL.

Looks good, nice car. I prefer the grill on your car over the '22 RS3 grill, but for me either look better than just about anything BMW is putting out and it's not even close. The RS3 front would probably look better if the surround were body-colored instead of black.

Especially on a vanity/emotional type purchase. This isn't a commercial truck we're talking about.
