Loveliest BMW Rear End

Of all modern BMWs out there, only one gets me drooling over its rear end when I'm driving behind it. For me, that is the 3rd gen 6 series (F06/F12/F13). I can't think of a more beautifully designed rear (‿|‿)

As for classic BMWs, for me that award goes to the Z8. But then again, how often do we get a chance to see one on the road.

Curious as to what others think is the BMW to follow in traffic just to admire from behind.

I'm a little biased since I have a G20 myself, but the G80 rear end is wonderful compared to the front end. My favorite in modern times for sure!

Another vote for the 1 M (admittedly biased). F80 is very nice, too.
