Has anyone seen this? BMW M5 2013 Commercial M Preview

I am not sure when the video was created...

When I first saw this video, I thought they meant M5, but after seeing the performance package or competition package whatever.. it seems more clear to me that M is trying to create new line with more racing oriented M cars.. (I am not sure though..) And I guess there were reasons why they didn't offer active side bolsters in current M5.

It is interesting that the head of M talks about the AWD in the video too.

I like the fact that M is still trying to be the king of the street but what I am little skeptical about is the pricing. If current M5s were priced around 80k and if this new M5 performance package is priced around 90~95k, it would make more sense to me.. but if they price this new one with performance package around 120k, I think people would rather go with the Porsche.

I watched it again.. and I guess this video was posted in 2012. (when he mentions M6 will be introduced... blah blah)

It was used to discuss the M Performance Automobile line and to preview the X6 LCI.
