Sad… a real watering down of the brand image. 99% of people would have no idea the new 7 is a BMW by seeing it drive by, and it’s supposed to be the brand flagship. The 5 may not end up much different.
I totally agree. We lament a style and feel that made us love the brand. My current x5 W/ laser lights might be the last new bmw I own with those iconic Angel Eyes.

Maybe bmw will learn the hard way like Porsche did on the 996 gen- maybe a dip in sales and online disappointment will speak loudly.

Something tells me though… no one is hearing us…
