that "diaper rear end"... I dunno, what were they thinking! Just go back making normal cars with subtle design language that made BMW great. This obnoxious sh.t just isnt the way.

I like the colors on these, and I like the front. Car design is heavy, but colors make this much more fun. When I see this in matte black it will get an eyeroll from me, but in a fun color its always nice.

Terrible. Don’t like the looks of the new m5. The front is sexy, but the rear is pretty ugly. And these colors don’t fit this car. I‘d opt for something more conservative.

Can't help but think the G9X would have benefited from the G80s painted side skirts to conceal some of the visual mass.

My favorite TG and/or BMW review by far. Those three knew how to entertain.

Blue looking pretty nice. Green is terrible--even on the more attractive wagon.

IOMG is a nice color, it's just been played out at this point. Every high school kid in my town has that color on their M3/M4.

That Santorini looks really nice.

I agree that IOMG feels played out since apparently BMW doesn't want to invest in creating new colors for new M car releases anymore. Another example of cost cutting...That being said, the only time I've seen IOMG in the wild was on an X5 M. At least from my perspective, I see the color on the forums a lot, but that doesn't represent how much I see it in real life.

It's a very popular color here in SC. I see at least 3 cars in IOMG every weekend at C&C.

When my F90 lease was about to expire, I was seriously considering an M8 Coupe in IOMG because I had not seen any cars in that color before and it looked fantastic online. I am so glad I did not do it because now it's what all the 17 year old kids drive.
