Why can't I get the larger images when I click on them individually?

Let's see what a final 'nice spec' M2 looks like.

Interior wise, I'd rather have more leather wrapped and soft touch material than CF everywhere. Although it's better than piano black. |

The carbon buckets are a $3800 option on the G80/82 and the CF roof should be standard on all M coupes, IMO. Hell, even if they made the CF roof a $1200 option, I'd still tick it. Adding those two items would not even come close to adding $20k to the price. The current F87 CS is $20k more than the comp and it has way more additions than what I'm asking for. I really don't want anything else in carbon fiber like mirrors, diffuser, lip etc. that stuff doesn't matter to me.

I agree, too much carbon is tacky looking, but a CF roof like the M3/4 and optional CF buckets are something I'm interested in... and it would also be my daily driver but YMMV.

Side profile is looking great. Seems like they smoothed out the awkward, stumpy rear end of the current gen.
Really hope they upgrade the interior to near 3/4 series level as well. The materials and sound system in my M235 are not impressive.

Now whether this is a final design or not, anyone's guess. Also the M version should get different front and rear bumpers. I'll say it now, the headlights design is horrid if this car is the final design. |

It's just odd that in this car enthusiast forum, people post about the current front wheel drive 2 series and feel the great heresy of that car is the aesthetics.
I'm sorry guys, this is not a design forum. The atrocity is that it changes a RWD chassis for a FWD one. The aesthetics are also unfortunately, but I'm clear what I consider the bigger issue. Maybe I'm in the wrong forum, and typed in 'designpost.com' instead of 'bimmerpost.com'. Reminds me of the conversations of the G8X, soooo much concern about how it looks vs how it drives. |

I honestly think that people actually think it's just a cool word to drop. Nothing like watching car videos where the guy over mentions: Carbon roof Carbon dash Carbon spoiler Carbon skirts Carbon diffuser And on and on and on. We get it. You have a massive carbon footprint. |

I did some digging and found a couple more leaks this time in black. Not sure if these are real or have been posted yet:
Also, here is a render that looks fairly accurate for the front but not so much on the side/arches: |
