Don't like the front lights that much as most of said no special or bmw like. Very similar to VW. It's doesn't look bad but it's like other cars already on market. Tail lights will have to see in person but look nice I think. Would love to have bigger iDrive screen but instrument panel 2019 or earlier is better.

Car looks amazing. The front is super classy and refined without being in your face. Love the headlights.

I would take the LCI headlights & Taillights with the Pre LCI "Everything else" 😎

All in all very nice vehicle!

Very very nice. Apparently my salary hasn't kept up with the Covid printing inflated cost of an M5.

Awesome car!! Unfortunately if I stick with BMW when my X3MC is up I may have to stay with an SUV and go with the X5MC (I prefer sedans strongly but strollers and such)... in my opinion Competition or better (this) wins every time. No "base" M for me

Look like Jetta / Audi headlights. Saw one in person today and such a disappointment. These will not age well. The pre - LCI is a timeless BMW look that shouldn't have been changed

Haven't encountered an LCI update yet that's not a must have. Proper!

Looking forward to seeing one lowered on perfectly fitted black 21s with a tidy front, side, and rear aftermarket aero pkg.

On a side note, I really dislike the way F90s look with the OEM black wheels. I don't know what it is, but they are nowhere near as nice as the forged Competition wheels.
I second that

Overall not bad (especially compared to other BMW's coming out lately...) but there is something about that front end that is too sharp/hard in the body lines that doesn't really go with the rest of the car, kind of hard to describe but the front end looks very stiff, maybe due to less curves in the design, the pre-refresh still looks better, but overall glad they didn't pull a 7er with this and give it oversized grills.

The daytime running lights are so chunky and cheap looking! Reminds me of kia hedlight.

Instinctively I want to call the styling "decent" or "not bad," but then I think about some other recent BMW styling directions and I find myself thinking a lot more favorably. The obvious target consumer is someone looking for a sleeper. This styling isn't so exciting, but does it really need to be? Be careful what you wish for with BMW these days.

Huge upgrade for me, personally. They literally DESTROY my previous M4's visibility capability. Especially when I am in the country and there is literally no street lamps illuminating the road. It's like it all of a sudden becomes day
Ditto on my m340

I am really liking the LCI even more in person, front and rear is much more pronounced.

This one is in Alpine White.
Also sporting the new Red Calipers.

Sorry for the crappy pics, this one is waiting for PDI.
There's definitely one in San Diego now, saw one and another G30 LCI of some sort driving all over Del Mar here in SD a few days ago.
