Black is gorgeous when spotless, but a bitch to maintain - never again for me!

Yeah, they probably saved $20/seat with that.

Looks that way from the pictures -- I'm going to be really disappointed if it's true. I'm 6'4" and, for me, those extenders have always been a big plus in sport seat BMWs.

I'm sorry but M4 looks like a joke right next to Z06.

Performance marvel that it is, that particular Vette looks too Transformer-ish. Now, the outgoing C6 ZR-1 looks completely badass, and the M4 can't touch its visual presence.

I don't care if it looks terminatorish. It looks badass.

Yeah, that Z06 is just a bit on the gaudy side. An amazing car though.

+1 I wish they had that interior out in the floor

The more I see this car the more I love it.

I live by those extenders ("adjustable thigh supports"). I'm really disappointed to see that they're not integrated here into the new M's. And like someone else pointed out - it would have cost BMW nothing to integrate them.

Second to last is the side and top view cameras

I LOVE the BSM but I'm not feeling those wheels...The 19s look so much better on the M3

They should be!

Black Sapphire with Silverstone interior looks great!

Hey, they needed to use that money to put the lighted logos on the seats. Get your priorities right man! Lighted logos or seat extenders? Lighted logos! Seat extenders ain't gonna get you no bitches man! BMW's got your back bro. Lol.

I am aware of this... I just think it is ridiculous that they keep doing this.
