I don't even mind the design but the black windows (inserts, or whatever you want to call them) are awful. They make the wheels look small, cheap and just plain ugly!

You're right! It definitely did. He must have forgotten that

I suppose you could make arguments for it but besides the car being larger than the e39 I don't see anything revolutionary about it. It was still well within BMW's design language. That's just my opinion

We'll find out in about 2 hours brotha. Which seemingly also coincides with the solar eclipse today.

Still one or more generations behind for that kind of power level and I don't think we see it with only combustible engines. These smaller turbo engines are going to generate too much heat at the 700hp level, so I think we eventually see larger turbos for less heat and electric motors to torque fill low down. Ahhh the limitations of pump gas.

Personally I'm a fan of how the 488 engine works in terms of the main decisions made, meaning a larger turbo, higher redline and boost by gear. Sure it's a FPC engine but the same principles could be done for the normal V8. These people that need full torque at like 1800rpm make no sense to me, i'd much rather trade off low end torque for more power and higher redline (also a turbo that pulls right to redline as well). |

Fender flares
The only 4 door ///M to ever have rear arch extensions is the F80.
I don't think this is the case. E60 M5 fenders are flared.

This mirror is so ugly trying to mimic F8x...Even the X5/6M mirror is better than this...This just looks like these f3x knock off mirror caps of f8x,looks like adding a horn to the corner, no smoothing the line like f8x and x5/6M..

You go to a track and you'll hear ferrari drivers honking each other because they have horns on 9 and 3. This one's gonna be even worse, switching between awd and rwd (depending on your m1 m2 setting) and eventually frying the electronics to leave you stranded. what were they thinking?
