This M440i Cabrio showcases the 20" option of wheels that are derived from the Coupe Concept for production viability.
Wait till you see them on the Coupe.

Scott, off topic/forum but while you are here, can you hint which month the G30 LCI will be revealed? April or May? |

I think it is interesting (maybe a bit disappointing) that the design group thinks 20s all around will look good on the new 4er, but the M3/M4 are stuck with the 19/20 f/r staggered look. If 20s all around works on the design language then the M siblings should at least have that optional.

He also posted a few years ago on another forum that he was part of a secret "creative marketing" division at BMW and he posted on forums and leaked selected info in that role. We've since had it confirmed by VERY reliable sources at BMW that this role didn't exist and Scott was making it up. There never was a "creative marketing" department at BMW and he is just a fantasist. ynguldyn is the best for inside info, by a mile. Quote:
I've lost count of the many times he's been completely wide of the mark, but some classics include: * Saying the M5 would have a KERS button on the steering wheel. * Saying the 7 Series would have a screen in front of the passenger. * Saying the G30 5 Series would be launched by 9th July "at the latest". (It was launched 12th October). No, it's better to have NO information than false information. |

If you look at my initial post yesterday, it was to warn someone SPECIFICALLY asking about the G30 LCI. I was pointing out that Scott has previously said the G30 LCI would be "at the Brussels motor show in January", then "at Geneva in March", and then finally it would be launched "imminently". Not a single prediction turned out to be true. It still hasn't been launched and we're now in the second half of April. Passenger screens on the 7er. M5 with KERS. 5er G30 being launched on 9th July (turned out to be 12th October). He's long been outed as a fantasist. If you want to keep defending someone who has even claimed to have worked for a special "creative marketing" department at BMW, even though no such department has ever existed, then carry on. I'd say you're being extremely gullible. |

I'll say this though - even my company was, as far back as February, cancelling or discussing cancelling participation in events scheduled for April, May, and July. We were among the first to pull out of some of these events, which later ended up cancelled due to the virus. We didn't tell anyone except the organizers, there was no public announcement of us pulling out. And the organizers maintained the event was still going on with full participation until they were forced to shut down and let everyone know it was cancelled by city or county mandate and such. Thanks for shedding light on the overall situation though. Noted for future reference. |

Aptly tuned for a vert it looks. Lots of body roll and diving under breaking. Luckily Galaxies away from the G8X cars in their ring clips.
The rear quarter is unsightly with the camo on. Looks like horse riding pants thighs... |

To me the pattern on the grille looks different than the one on the video of the June 2nd release. Or maybe it looks all black.
