I think states with Front License plates are going to make this far really ugly based on the grill design ��

I did see car with Green color on M3 and the yellow color on M4 comp. both looked good.
Makes sense, BMW likely doesn't see a reason to sell a RWD Auto model when its using an xDrive system that can turn itself into RWD at the push of the button. It does add weight, but its a way for BMW to save and make more money, so makes sense, also aligns with the rumors of the manual being the "pure" model.

As for the front plate, that is one of the aspects I am least excited for. This will possibly be the first ugly M3 for me.
