Hi,
Quite good, but still just photoshopped pictures. I have marked some details to look in enclosed pictures.
We still have to wait one week...

great points Jukka
it was clear that the other pics were photoshopped as the overall shape did not fit the prototypes, but you have really pointed the details where we can differentiate the rendering from the real thing

My Ride: Alpine White 2006 530Xi (SLD)
Why would anyone read a ... eww... paper magazine - let alone Car and Driver in this day and age anyway? 
By the time a paper magazine makes it to my library (aka bathroom), I've long-forgotten about the "news" they're "revealing" after having read them online. I remember reading Road and Track's article about Penske's buying Pontiac AFTER I've read online that he backed out. That was it for me - that was the last time I read a car magazine. "From now on, I'm just buying/subscribing for the pretty pictures", I told myself... well, thanks - now I know for sure that even pictures aren't worth the trouble of picking up the magazine.
Next issue
