Air Breather/Air Curtain Advanced Aero System Revealed for First Time on Next Gen G30
Like its big brother G11 7 Series the Next Gen G30 5 Series will incorporate the Air Breather/Air Curtain system for better aero around the front wheel wells. Again...this car has been shot countless times and No One has picked up the new aero system on the new G30. Always stick with PalBay SpyShots. Thanks. PalBay

I don't see how this is news, it's shown in the g30 spy thread.

These spy pics was pretty hi-res and you can clearly see the vent. The render was based on pics from this set.

The Air Curtain / Air Breather systems are on the F01 and F3x platforms as well -- BMW is even using those vehicles for illustration in its product pages: http://www.bmw.com/com/en/insights/t...mics_2013.html
I think no one really remarked on it because it is not a new feature by any means. Sure, the visual design is slightly different, but it is not unexpected given that it is a new car and not just an LCI. It is like saying the G30 will have iDrive 5.0 or kidney grills -- it would bigger news if it didn't. Last edited by frankchn; 07-17-2016 at 10:27 PM.. |

I called this out months ago. I even highlighted it in red. I appreciate that you have great photographs; they are all over the web. However don't act like you are the first that noticed it in a spy shot. Edit: Found it. See this post here: http://g30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...&postcount=142 And this image. Looks like I clearly identified it from the picture. Last edited by Needsdecaf; 07-18-2016 at 01:39 PM.. |

For someone who is repeatedly touting that the only thing that matters is whether or not you specifically mention it, then not realizing that the air breather is a different design than whats been seen on the 7 represents a failure on your part.
