IMHO, quad exhaust points to a different turbo configuration, with each turbo having it's own exhaust.

This could be. I mean BMW would really embarass themselves if this car had the same setup as the iS cars. BIG TIME. I would have to step back from the keyboard for a little while.

I wish they had a power bulge though, I liked that in the renderings.

Not everything is here. Slapping a different hood on is almost zero work. M cars dont have chrome line trim but this has it. Noticing a carbon fiber roof is damn near impossible on this color.
