Looking from the rear view, I see a lot of similarities to other cars in that car...Subaru, Acura, Jag, Alfa, Accord, Lexus IS. The one I'm not getting a ton of, is actual BMW dna. Take the badge off and I'm not sure the average person could tell you the brand from anywhere but maybe the front view.

Gotta remember that these days, China is what influences design...and for better or worse the Chinese market seems to like busy and over-designed cars. BMW is also the ultimate new money car...and new money likes to shout.
