There's not much teasing left and the grill is almost the same as the i5 M60, so of course it will be with glowing kidney.

Love it.

People have their opinions and some are just haters. We all know how much people hated the G80/G82 grills when it first came out, and now everyone has those cars.

I love what BMW does, they are not afraid to try new things and have bold designs, so people who dont like this grill or the design or whatever on the New M5 G90, they will be fans later.
I LOVE IT and cant wait for the launch.

If people don't like it, they can turn it off thankfully. However it does add to the effect at night.

I imagine this is an option. I think the M5 will be another hit. It would be nice if they could return to the angel eye headlights. I have an LCI F90 and the headlights are probably the one thing I wish BMW would have done differently. Would have been a home run if they had used an advanced laser angel eye headlight.

What is G992? People are going to confuse it with Porsche 992.

When approaching the car to unlock I think it would be nice. But the rest of the time it is the ultimate "look at me" design element and I hate that. I guess all G90s can be listed on the Fake Badges thread since I would argue the reason for the glow is similar.

Make sure you get the valve stem caps that glow also. . Then get your under-glow installed and you are straight pimping then boys. The ladies will be chasing you with mattresses on their backs

How can you tell its not just a base i5? Looks exactly the same.

They've done nothing to make it look more special than the base model. I don't understand the excitement.

Assuming BMWNA reads / monitors these forums - Who is asking for or wants this crap? Who really needs that much attention when they’re driving their M5?

Still don’t like the G8x design for what it’s worth, engineering marvel absolutely, design wise still a no go in my book.

The G90 however I do have a liking for and I’m looking towards to seeing it in the flesh.

I’ve seen this on the i7 and can assure everyone they look as rediculous as the lit up Mercedes front grill logo.
