Whatever nice touches IND will provide + more but not too much more..😈
The xDrive version will be damn close to the M5 weight, I'm guessing < 150 lbs difference.

Same here, didn't think I would say that but I am actually starting to like it. My choice would be Frozen Black on the M3.

I will be picking up a 6spd manual coupe for my 40th bday in a couple years....totally love the design, and give or take 500 hp...amazing.

The proportions are incredible and the substantial width of the car almost requires the grilles to be vertically oriented to help balance the nose. This design was thought out, certainly over thousands of hours. Can't wait !

I'm getting conditioned to it. I'd still prefer a more traditional front end, but this looks pretty bold and badass. I could live with it.

In vivid colors the front-end is too busy for my preference but with the grille's bottom lip wrapped in black I'm honestly starting to dig it. Enough so that I might even dig into my wallet....

Quick photoshop comparison:

Did anyone else notice that their pictures don't show the sensor on the grill. It looks way better in these photos with out it.

Ok last one.. this might be it for me with the bottom wrapped. Add carbon fiber mirrors with black interior and I'm set.

Seriously the front looks like its a slice of sinuses on a CT Scan.
I think the designer had a bad sinus issue and had many sinus CT scans. Hence the front of the far.
