Just browsed my way to this old thread. Just found interesting that people can actually like the look of the e85/e86. I guess it is really a controversial design. To me it was by far the ugliest BMW in history. The rear looks chopped off with round lights. Kind of like a mustang crossed with a fiat but only with their worst features. Absolutely no harmony in the design. The front just looks plain and sad. Almost Miata like for the headlights or as some others have said a disfigured shark. Seen from the side, good god,... weird looking lines all over. As if the on designer had the front and another had the back and somehow they tried to mix it. I had a Z3 and I think I resold it with no depreciation at all because the Z4 was so ugly that the Z3 market picked up after the Z4 launch. The new e89 Z4 finally got me back into a Z car... But it is really fascinating that some people actually liked the e85.
