What's with the Chrome mirrors??!! Does it come with an ENVY badge as well?!
I really hope this is an artists impression, who has spent to much time doing Audi pictures and got the mirror colour schemes confused. That said, I note they use Chrome mirrors on the Z4 Si model (- I think it was that model). If this is BMW's new design for mirrors, then I think I can guess what the first F10 DIY is going to be!
Other than that, it seems to be heading in the right direction. I hope the real deal is "sharper" than the pic above.

My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
I just like the headline: "With Pontiac out of the picture Buick is free to build sportier cars to compete with the imports" 
C'mon, does anyone under 60 drive a Buick? Seriously? The last thing they need to do is build "sportier" cars, that would kill off the last of their demographic.
