It looks awesome to me. Since it grew a little, too, when my 545 lease is up, I may have to go "down market" and get an E90 M3 or 345i or whatever is the biggest and baddest motor in it. The highlight says that it will have active steering, too, which I though they were going to skip. I wonder if it will also get the Active Roll Stabilization system, too?

...to answer your question, no, the E90 will not get ARS. I believe that the extra weight became a compelling factor.

not bad . but i think the kidney grilles look a bit too "retangular" . the armrest looks better than the e60 and i hope bmw will learn a lesson from our cupholders. but they look almost the same <_<.
