Not really a fan of any of the parts. The rear wing and front hood vents are just terrible. It's a GT car, it shouldn't be trying to look like boy racer.

Ditch the idiotic canards and stupid rear wing and the rest of the parts adds more aesthetic aggression especially that diffuser which is very good.

Exactly. Not crazy about the hood CF and front canards. A bit too much for my taste.

Good with a few deletions

Lose the rear spoiler and replace with a slight CSL type ridge, loose the small gills / wings on the front and the bonnet splitters. Then it would be about right.

With lowered suspension and aero it's be a GT anymore and it's more track suited. 600hp.

This is just If you want something not M.

I love that this is front page yet again when literally nothing has changed from the last time ACS posted these images when the 850i was first revealed.

I'll never get these 5 min back. 🤨

The answer is most likely easier than you think.

Here in germany we have some phrases to this:

"Auf jedes Töpfchen passt ein Deckelchen" - translated directly it means something like "For every pan there is a lid"

Also a german designer said once "Taste is a question of intellect"

The car has some nice details but also some looking utterly ugly or designed by a need for speed kid.
The wing is a complete disaster design wise.

AC Schnitzer is obviously not aiming for the cautious elegant type of person but rather imo the tasteless dumbass / rich kid.

But as every pan has its lid. Our german drug dealers and prostitute pimps make some good money and they like this over here.

That spoiler is a bit small for such a gigantic car.
They should look at something what #alexchoi had on his m2

If we're both seeing a car with 4 wheels and 2 doors, then yes, we're both seeing the same thing.

However, If we're both seeing a predictably stereotypical muscle car contrasted with an original sleek German GT, then no, we're not seeing the same thing.

Not that I am at all biased towards German engineering. Completely open-minded in every way. Ist das klar?
