Nice. Thanks for the early photos.

Interesting how the M4 has no mbadge on the quarter panel yet the M760 does. I guess the best way to be sure its not a real M car is if it has an Mbadge on the side

The M760 looks nice from what we can see in the photo. More sporty. Is it now ready to compete heads up with the S Class? I don't know about the chrome hockey stick on the side. Time will tell.

So the M4 ZCP will be there after all. That's good news.

It's there on the vent trim piece but difficult to see in this picture.

Why do I get the feeling the frozen M760i will be the 'it' car for its segment this summer?

Yawn!

Not exactly a magic line up is it? Apart from the 760; nothing really new.

Here is an American spec X1 MSport Estoril blue, I took this photo yesterday. That other one must be euro spec.
