I think it looks great. I saw the car about 9 months ago in Regensburg and thought, a little Z3, a little Z4, a little 6-series, and a touch of Z8. I also agree that the body seams and character lines take some getting used to, but then I remember hating the current 5 when it first appeared for the same reasons, now I love the design. Only time will tell if customers luv it!
