Not feeling that front end so far .... reminds me of the preLCI F20.

#THE1.

It looks very nice for FWD hatchback. Those headlights have come up very crisp, drawing a close inspiration from THE 8. It will be a good car and I expect it to sell better than the F20/F21 and, why not, attract new customers towards the brand. Mark me impressed.

I really like how the design has actually formed out of the front body work. Compared to the use of additional plastic appendages to bring further attention.

Real:

Edited:

It does look a lot better with the reduced contrast...

They are multibeam icon headlights they will be optional. Standard headlights have teary eye DTRL like as seen on the G20.

This results in a bigger visual difference between standard and icon headlights compared with the X3 and 5-Series which have hexagonal/octagonal DTRL.

Reveal the car instead of making idiocies like that video and leave everything half-hearted, I never liked this type of marketing, a little is fine, but months and months of this clowning seems wrong

Unwrapping camouflage certainly is soothing. A bit like popping the air bubbles on packing plastic.

Misano Blue. I know,the pre-emotive txt issue changes it to Montego.
This is also the lead-in colour of the forthcoming M2 CS.

I have a habit of peeling everything that has a sticker to it, whether it's a fragrance, a food jar, or what have you, as I prefer having a monotonous, or a "cleaner" look to the pack. The downside is if the glue is still there, then it becomes irritating when it gets stuck to your hand every single time...

Back to the 1er. I'm liking what I'm seeing as well, regardless of it being based on a FWD platform.

Welcome to the club Doing the same especially in the kitchen. The glue quite frequently is an issue, but once gotten rid of the multicolor stickers, stuff looks so much cleaner and 'designer home photo'-like, so it's a useful OCD A cool tip is to get rid of all the flashy cheap looking cardboard cereal boxes, tea boxes, etc. and use stainless steel canisters which give a premium look and reduce the amount of colors in the given room.

That is exactly where it started for me. I remember doing this when I was a young kid to the kitchen stuff, and my mother got irritated because sometimes she couldn't figure out which from which. I still try to do it if it's possible to do so...

I have an OCD where my stuff have to be areanged by a ruler so I believe everything is "balanced". Now, I don't know why I think it's balanced, but it seems that I like uniforms...

This is getting weird back to the 1 series

Quick tip. If you need to remove residue leftover from labels? A cotton-tip and some lighter fluid at the end is what you need.
