is it me or does the "M Performance" font look very retro in a not-so-cool David Hasselhoff kind of way? Although the Germans do go crazy for him so maybe it makes sense.

Glad you said it first. That typeface on genuine BMW products makes them look like asian counterfeit stuff with that cheesy logo!
I will, however like to have one of those Alcantara armrests with the stitching.
It's just... where are they going with this?

M Performance tires? Oh lord. On a side note, can anyone give me the first close up pic of the wheel and carbon brakes as a wallpaper? It looks pretty darn nice.

Tires?
I think they're referring to the close up of the lip of the wheel that says m performance.

At first glance it looks like the tire side wall reads m performance.

I know it's just branding but I prefer the BMW Performance program to ///M Performance. When I see ///M Performance, I think cheap aftermarket for some reason.

This is what I pick-up as new for the F8X:
  • New wheels
  • New diffuser
  • Rear wing for the F80 (M3)
  • Decals for the F80 (M3)

EDIT: No new diffuser, just trick lighting in the preview pictures
