Looks good to me.
FWD- Who cares besides track bros? Is the average buyer going to have the need to drift through rush hour traffic? FWD emphasizes packaging efficiency and efficiency overall (MPG) and interior room. It's a win/win/win unless you drive a drift car. Besides you say FWD can't handle? Think Mini.
Design/kidney. Subjective, obviously. But I really like it. And I've been critical of most newer BMWs. The upside down kidneys flow better with the headlight inside edges vs. flowing the opposite way for "normal" kidneys. Not every BMW has to look alike.
The inside.. i dig it. clean/simple. iPad on dash is just a sign of the times. Everyone is doing it.
