Why do the lights remind me of the tails on the 2-Door Civic?

Tail lights are like a previous-gen Altima (sides) and TSX (middle) mixed.
The side does look like the new A4.
No way in hell I'd buy it. I'd hate to see the headlights. I'm sure they're just as nasty as the tail lights.

The 6 series is the one they should start borrowing design hints from.

i can safely say, bangles designs dont irk me as much as they do some people, but if he fucks up the bread and butter of BMW AG, his ass is grass. that is the car BMW lives off of, well that and the 5 to some extent. they board can tolerate the now diminishing critics of their elite car (small market) and the swaying criticism of their middle class car (medium size market) but there will be no ignoring of poor sales of the 3 series, all you bangle head hunters will more than likely get your wish if the public doesnt warm to this design.

My opinions of him and his montrsoities are of my own accord. I have a very long history with BMW. From the time I loved in Germany and we bought one straight from the factory and toured the place to when I bought my first one for my first car.

I can honestly say his new designs SUCK! They do not represent anything bimmer used to mean. So I will continue to bash bangle and call him out for the putz he is.

I've got to see the whole car to make a decision. However the back is nothing to look at.

Designs from BMW are not very popular these days thanks to Chris Bangle.

I hope it stays the same size. Small cars are getting to big nowadays. It looks okay though. THe last 2 generations will be tough to beat.
