The front is reminiscent of an Evo.
The grill does look like it’s chopped in half.
What is with the lights trying to look mean? I like the E39’s subtle front looks that can look more aggressive with the aftermarket lid if so desired. The rear end should look pleasing not aggressive. If you’re driving the car why have a “mean” look if you’re in front of someone or create that feeling in someone that is behind you?
The sides look like almost every other car now. I liked the previous door trim, not only was it functional, but it gave the vehicles the unique sleek line that went from bumper to bumper that oddly enough made the car seem whole rather than the awkward breaks that it has now.
