Those tails lights are screaming Lexus "L" design language.

These are NOT the M340, which will have trapezoid tailpipes.

It looks better in the real world photos. The double feature line - one through and one above the door handles just looks wrong to me. The rear quarters remind me a little of a Subaru which is beyond wrong. Similarly the trapezoidal tailpipes on the M340i reminds me of of the C43 which is not good. I may be with Audi longer than I was counting on. Of course the coupe and gran coupe may look better - by the time they come out BMW will likely figure out that this look isn't working.
