I think it's almost certain they will come up with LED headlights during LCI. I can only hope they don't change the shape of the headlights so that we don't have to swap the whole bumper/fender.

Awesome shots, thanks!

M6 all the way..

Thus why I'd personally pick the M6 GC! Best of both worlds.

Week 37 build.....

Thank you Jason for sharing this pictures, it makes even more difficult, those are my favorite colors....

Great pics! I saw the Sakhir Orange at the BMW PC in Spartanburg a week ago. It does look better in person than on the configuration site however, these pics capture what it really looks like. I was seriously considering it for my order but I decided on Azurite Black.

azurite looks dope on the M5 plus I like the 5 better

From my glimpse of it at the PC, does it really have the strong red tones and sky reflections (blue tones)? It looks good on the M5 but is stunning on the M6.

I LOVE this color! I would not have the balls to own it but I love it.
