It’s obvious when the BMW 1-Series pictures were leaked, the styling raised many eyebrows for the wrong reason. Here’s my revision. Do you think it’s better?
Do check out my earlier BMW 1-Series impressions here.
The blue one looks good , the red one looks too similar like an X-5
but I think the real issue is the uninspiring rear and tail lights, whats your take…?
Also, could you do a rendering of the side profile (using the red one found in paultan.org) and make it a sportback/fastback like an A7, … just a suggestion…

I like the “original” 1-Series. I like your render too, but I prefer the original.
By the way, many people think of a fake. What do you think about it ?
