This is what USED to (under Bangle) set BMW apart. They left the "every model must look the same" era of the e46, e38, e39 to the every model has a different style (e65/66, e60, e87, e90, e92) which was risky and innovative and it PAID OFF.
Now under Van Hooydonk it seems they want to be like Audi and VW with the "every model looks the same" philosophy.
Hell I am BMW obsessed and I can't tell the difference between the F01, F10 at first glance. If I spent $200k on an F01 i'd like it to look a little better than a 5er.
The E90LCI, F01 7er, F10 5er, F12 6er, X1 and now the F20 all have the same 4 creases on the bonnet, which I specifically dislike too.
So now, with 1 style for all cars, if you don't like the look, there is no BMW for you!
At least under Bangle era where all models had unique style, if you didn't like the e87 you might like the e90 or the e60.. There was something to hold onto..
