I'm surprised to hear you say that. I thought the mk1 looked sophisticated and classy, the frs looked muscular and exotic. The mkII looked like they gave the mkI and some 90's model spaceship parts to a 5-year old and asked him to glue them where he wanted. the rear and taillights looked like after market pieces of plastic from 1984, and who stole the fender vents from my M3...copycat moves cheapen the experience. Not to mention the rims were the ugliest of the 3 and the lines that had so elegantly flowed and slimmed the sides of both the mkI and frs were slaughtered in the mkII even overlapping at what use to be a sexy hip over the rear tire(on the mkI). Too many good ideas to go with sloppy after-thought designs like that. I really hope they don't put the fender vents in, or I won't take a second look at it come production time.
