Unhappy

I really wish they would keep the third brake light up high in the rear glass (on all marques) and not in the metal of the trunk line. This makes it that much more difficult for aftermarket companies (or BMW themselves) to come up with creative designs for treatment of the rear spoiler, as they of course have to incorporate it.

To me the rear of the F12 is the weakest part of the car and a more robust trunk could help with that. Just imagine the E46 M3 CSL with a third brake light placed dead center in that beautifully designed bootlid.

It doesn't make sense both aesthetically and even logically, you want the third brake light as high above the the standard brake lights as possible... that's the entire point.
