Well, at least the design as a whole (hole?) is cohesive. At first I didn't quite understand the "puff" on the side, but after looking at the back, it makes much more sense (sents?) 

Yea, I actually like the design just not on that car.  Put it on a racecar and people would lose their minds with excitement.  It just needs to lose the exploding butthole.

i read the bmw.com article. an excerpt:

someone said:

"The exterior paint job alone absorbed over 200 hours of painstaking manual labor, where the color samples were often applied under the scrutiny of magnifying glasses. “Dozens of engineers and designers have given their all to celebrate our partnership and make his vision come true,” said Zipse. The artist himself spent many days on site at the Dingolfing plant over a period of months to discuss design options with all the BMW employees involved."

it took them dozens of of engineers to vinyl wrap a car? and choosing colors is paintstaking manual labor?

what a bunch of privileged buttholes.

I get the idea behind the rear design but it does come out looking like you’re staring down a stink star. Disappointing because the e92 is one of my favorites too. Seems like he took some inspiration from the Baldessari car.
