The grille and the colour make me it look like a Fallout mole rat:

Just a picture to remind everyone that BMW used to make beautiful automobiles.

It still boggles my mind that I can’t just go to a manufacturer’s car configurator, spec out a car the way I want it, and then order one to be delivered to my door. The dealership model is absolutely insane and serves the interests of no-one but a bunch of predatory middle-men. Car shopping absolutely sucks, and

Yeah, no thanks.

Companies generally don’t like being associated with killing their customers.
