Yes items on the concept car such as the front spoiler and CFRP exhaust covers will be provided under M Performance.

Don't be surprised if other manufacturers follow suit. At least they are trying to get these ugly details out of the way now. |

Very very impressive. Looks better than the Pebble Beach Concept, almost like it is chiseled out of a single piece of metal now that the gaps are smaller and fit and finish is a lot tighter.

The hood line is not the end of the world. Reminds me of a 1960s Ford or GM - cutting edge German design. Plus no more leading edge paint chips on the metal hood.

That leaves the future M2 which will then come with tea light candles, aluminium foil and orange sweet wrappers, unless you pay 1500 for optional adaptive oil lamps |

They almost look like a modern Vader style seat. Headrest does look somewhat built in. |

If BMW M has an integrated vader style lightweight seat (much thinner and hopefully way lighter than the days of the E36 seat - as they were pretty heavy) that would be totally bad ass. Headrest and shoulder width would look very cool - design cue like this I feel would be huge as I never thought the E9x Seats to be extremely different from the standard vehicles. Also would point as to why they are covering up the interior from our view so much on the concept |

The F3x/F8x chassis has already been in development since 2009 (first seen 3 years ago), so it's obviously too late to change a hood/bumper for an M-model debuting now. |

i like the roof indentations similar to the new generation M6's - the car overall will have to grow on me, but that front bumper-hood line is a no-go for me

The little bit of camouflage they kept really does wonders, from the spy shots the rear 3/4 looks too long.
but in the concept car the rear 3/4 looks perfect...I really can't wait to see the production version in all the available colors. |
