I suspect this is one of those "Needs to look like this to be an M" things. I think they look unique on the cars, but not quite as aggressive as they could on the SUV variants. I saw a Jag F-Type with a quad exhaust while stuck in traffic yesterday.... *that* looked good... (and no, it wasn't on fire or broken down at the side of the road!)
The new mirrors are another case in point. I *love* the visibility on my E71 X6, but if we're attaching mirrors to something with the aerodynamic characteristics of a small building (F15/F16/F85/F86), they may as well increase visibility.... ;p
