Rants are fine.
I actually think the twins look really good! But the concepts looked better. Most concepts do.
Cant understand the design of the headlamps on the new 1-series tough. (F20/F21 hatcback sold in EU) Most find them quite ugly. It does not look that bad with the m-package. But its not a beauty either.
The cool thing about the BMW "i" cars seem to be that they actually will look quite a lot like the concepts. A bit modern and fresh. Suits the cars.

WARNING OFF-TOPIC STUFF:
You might cringe by this car. But you familiar with the Opel/Vauxhall Adam? Not sure it if will be sold in the US. Dont think its on sale yet even in the EU.
But that is probably the new "niche" small car. Extreme customization in terms of look and style and individuality.

Many fancy og good pictures here. Press "neste" for "next picture".
Check out this webpage. Buying a car is cool. You get cool hip and relaxing music. And you can make the car suit every individual or style..

One part of me so wants to make fun if it. Another wants to buy a car.. :p (dont judge me)
I actually think its a bit cool. And the concept is very good.
But say the style series in a gay voice (no offence to gay people). Adam JAM, Adam GLAM, Adam SLAM..
It might be the new niche market.... Trendy and thousands of customization possibilities.
I actually wish the GT86 had some decent options like that. Rims, tires, interior stuff, aesthetics, lots of performance stuff. Would be nice to have OEM equipment of your choice fitted on the car from the factory at a reasonable price.
I think it would fit Scion to try out such a thing. Toyota could become less boring, and also make their cars appeal more to a younger audience than retired people. :p
