M model question

do the 550 and M5 have the same fenders
do the 650 and M6 have the same fenders

i know the Z4 and Z4M roadster have the same fenders. just wondering since the new M3s come with sweet flared fenders.

No and no. Both front and rear different for both M5 and M6 (think you had a typo).

prob for cost reasons... i am sure they sell more m5s than Z4Ms ... so its not worth while to make different body panels for the z4

probably...plus i think a wider front end on the z4 would look odd

The Z4 already has all the detail it needs without flared fenders.
