This will end up biting them in the end just like it came back to bite Toyota. BMW is cutting corners. Ever since they've become the #1 luxury sales manufacturer, the $ has gone to their heads and they are losing sight of what made a BMW....a BMW.
That are design lines, nothing more nothing less. Arguing that BMW has lost it based on these lines which are -- again -- nothing more than a combination of wheel/trim/color design is a bit far-fetched. The F30 has lost some 40kg over the E90 and will without a doubt perform and drive and better than its predecessor. That's what makes a BMW a BMW to me.
