Yes it’s like that all time. Car Orr music that is met with so much dislike in time becomes the most liked or sold. Like you mention the 745 years

Is it true that they have to replace the track surface each time one of these cars uses it? My son asked me if the track surface was only rated to withstand the mass of a small moon instead.

Made me miss my two F10 550s. They still look better than this new 5 series.

I’m still trying to figure out why they named it “Brooklyn” grey. Is it referencing the skyline? It can’t be the bridge because that’s not remotely close to this  |

Still can’t get over the ugly sill line required to share this platform with a full EV. The proportions are all wrong. I’m sure the car is great but please fire the designers.

“It has an ugly face here, but that’s not what I mean” epic and aptly said!

Hell, after spending over 20 years in the Navy, and being Civil Service for 17 after that. And working on a Navy Base now, I see it every frickin' day. Maybe that's why I could never own a car that color. I have enough Haze Grey in my life to last forever. I don't want to drive it home. I'd probably tell the personal Assistant "Hey BMW, All ahead, Full. Make turns for 28 knots. Course 220.5". Instead of attaching M Symbols I'd be painting hull numbers on the fenders. Lol.

Yeah I think they did a good job as far as making the color go with the inspiration… despite whether or not the color itself brings bad memories.
Hull numbers, maybe an occasional rivet? Stuart |

I ve seen both USAF Eagles and Canadian Navy frigates on that colour, but never a USN combatant
Unless my mobile screen distorts the YouTube video colour, which is also a possibility Aye aye
