What time zone is CET?
CET is "Central European Time" or GMT "Greenwhich Mean Time" +1 Hour.

Military Translation

CET = A "Alpha" Time Zone
GMT = Z "Zulu" Time Zone

Phil, in Texas, you would be in the Central Time Zone, also known as the S "Sierra" Time Zone, which is 7 hours behind CET or A "Alpha". therefore, you would be able to view the webcast when your clock is 7 hours behind the scheduled time of CET. it is easier to use military/NATO letters. There are 25 time zones, 26 letters. J "Juliet" is skipped, and it usually refers to the observers timezone, although many people usually use "L" for local. that is incorrect.

it is currently 0524Z or 0124R (which I can also refer to as 0124J as I am observing the time in my very timezone, but it should only be used when talking to someone in the same timezone)

That crease line along the bottom of the car is a LOT more pronounced than I imagined via any of the spy shots or illustrations. Have a look -- it really sticks out. I like what I see so far!

Thumbs up

So these two renderings below turned out to be the most accurate. You agree?

Congratulations Jon Sibal!!

You produced the best rendering of the front lights and grille, better than any of those stupid (but still highly paid) magazine "specialists"!

We can only hope that the lower bumper of the actual M5 also looks so close to the rendering..

dude, there is a massive difference between the size and form of the headlights in these renderings and the real thing!
just look at the indicator form!
