It's funny you mistook the M as the new G because that's my biggest complaint about the M. It looks too much like it's smaller brethren. In fact I like the G's styling much better.

I get that automobile companies want to have a family resemblance but I think it's going too far with some of them. Audi and BMW are all about the small,medium, large look. I don't get it, are they trying to save money by only needing one design? You can have the cars have a resemblance without making them exactly the same with minor tweaks here and there. I'm a car enthusiast and I have a hard time figuring it out. BMW was doing fine with the signature kidney grille.

 

i am going to start covering up badges on my car with tapes, let's see what happen

 

^^^ A pic of your car will end up on the internet with everyone trying to guess what kind of M test mule you have... haha
