I am just a little turned off by this new marketing campaign. Am I going to make up my mind before a test drive or before final release? No way. I wish BMW let the paparazzi do all the spyshots and stay focused on preparing a grand splash/official debut on 12/12/10.

I don't care if they are creating more attention or less. It's not about them winning (advertisement working) or me winning, (kind of childish, do you not think?) Are you telling that sedona red or (insert color) red 1M under the black tarp that they have been shuttling around for the past 1-2 month is not done? And they are still working on that unit while it's being transported? (I am adding this post-posting) One more point, you believe the only reason they couldn't lift the entire cover off today is because they have to work overtime tonight to add a new roof or update the interior? Really?

I think BMW's marketing strategy is working. Everyone including myself are really pissed BMW is dragging this out which is what they want. We could easily forget about it or lose interest but it's actually hyping up the car. As followers of the BMW brand we know how important this car will be and it will be a top contender for one of BMW's best cars. I'm confident it will be a great car. I'm glad to finally hear how much horsepower and transmission this car will be too as I've read so many conflicting opinions from various sources but it's officially 250kw or 340bhp and manual only.

This is an example where realty does not meet up with expectation spawn from vague hints. Ultimately I don't think it matters, I believe the performance will live up to the hype. Still, quite questionable to have a design cue so similar to a wheel arc vent but not really one. (If you want a side vent, step up and upgrade to a M3 in the future. Analogy will be expecting autobots from transformers all year. Parents leaves catalogue of Toy-R-Us open at page of Transformers. Comes Xmas day you found out you got Go-bots Only if you improve your grades next year you will get real Transformers.

side vents are definitely not cosmetic...the air channeled in the tire well needs to go somewhere...helps direct air out
