The headlights are still there! - new Render

I am one of the few that do not like the headlights on any of the post E46 cars. If there is one thing I wish they would've "fixed" on the 1M is the headlights like they did on the E90/92 M3.

I am not really good at photoshop so excuse the lines, just so you guys can see what I mean.

Overall, I still might buy one after I see it in the flesh but I whish the could've done something about the headlights. They fixed the pot belly with the vent-looking thing on the fender sides, but we still have the funky headlights.

I never liked the headlights either... but I think adding that brow really fixed it. I do like the 1M lights. What they did and what you did looks very similar.

That's it! They look, friendly. I like my cars with mean looking headlights!

Anyway, I like how they changed the headlights on the current M3. Maybe they will do facelift update on the car and put some anger in those lights! ; )

Awright, it it really attacts chicks, the headlights can stay, but my wife and daughter both thought the headlights were too big.



Let's hear it from the girls!

Friendly Koala lights or Bengal Tiger lights?

I'm curious to see what the ladies think?

Chicks to ride in it or chicks who will buy and drive it? None of the women I know who like riding around in my car (topless of course... ;-) ) care what the headlights look like... Or the taillights, or the handling. They just like the breeze, sun and heated seats!
