Our Christmas tree is ready! Have you already gone to visit him?

Not a great translation from Google. Maybe someone that speaks Spanish can provide a better one?

The red car with bronze gold wheels looks like a really nice combo. Also like the CF vent inserts.

Christmas party over! Get back to work. These cars won't build themselves (I guess the robots will).

Not usually a fan of gold wheels but those look really good with the TR.

Game · 12-06-2022, 10:21 PM

TR continues to look great here.

stashstein · 12-06-2022, 10:36 PM

Where do I get those wheels?!

I just wish we could see it outside under direct sunlight.

Not much better, but it literally says: "Our Christmas tree is ready! Have you gone to visit it?

Context meaning; go to the BMW dealership to check it out.

This might actually be the most useless "diffuser" in history, and simultaneously, ugliest design.

Add-on the giant sagging hemorrhoid of a rear muffler assembly, and BMW may have finally cracked mind-control...if anyone finds this design appropriate...

The M2 is controversial enough, I cannot find any acceptable answer as to why such a great Brand markets bumpers as diffusers, shapes exhaust outlets in useless configurations, and deliberately draws attention to mufflers that do not align with underbody flow or the rear bumper. End rant.

Here's the kicker. The MPE was not even designed specifically for the G87 but rather the G80/2. They just changed some of the plumbing between the cat and muffler to accommodate the M2, replaced the M2s diffuser and voilà, you get a half-assed MPE at a hefty price. I agree, it doesn't match the design of the car at all.
