Having said that, note that the new 2 doesn't have the beav... er, I mean, enormous grille and draw your own conclusions about what that means going forward. Could mean smaller grilles and a bunch of archived threads, the latter because everybody who cares enough to post about it has repressed the memory.
P.S. My favorite grille joke is still Sreten's (M539 Restorations on YouTube) comment when a late '90s 850i right kidney fell on his foot: "If this had been a new 7-series, it would have crushed my foot."

I wasn't even talking about the grilles. I was just pointing out the fact that BMW is continually diluting the M brand by changing the model designation to have the "M" precursor if the car has the "M-Sport" option. Which, lets be honest, is ever increasingly an aesthetic option package.
Or that if you tick the "M-Sport" option on your build sheet, then the vehicle arrives festooned with "M" branding all over the place. When in reality, besides a few suspension pieces and some bumpers - it is the exact same car as one without the "M-Sport" option.
