I don't like the front...

Now I have found the design inspiration and it's pretty disturbing:
The M5


The Ford Taurus SHO

The 20" on M5 are forged wheels, they are much lighter.

I knew I've seen that shitty fender vent somewhere before! What's disturbing is, I loooove the Taurus SHO, and the new M5 just slid down a notch for that crappy side vent. I mean, I'm still in awe and everything, but I can't help, but agree with you John good observational skills

Yes they look good but wait till you get the price for them.
IMO not much has gone into design on this car, a blown up E90 M3 is all it is, and the additional weight over the 550i M Sport is huge. A Barge.
