Just spotted this on IG. Obviously renders but I sure hope it’s close.

I think this is the new price benchmark for all German sport models. Not trying to argue, been looking around outside the BMW brand, can’t imagine all the new 2025 MB AMG 63/Audi RS models being sub 130k when they’re released.

The touring is much nicer looking than the sedan (as so often).

As some have mentioned, the pricing is absurd. I would never buy a new car anyways, but I just can't imagine dropping this kind of dough on a BMW. BMW is supposed to be a premium but accessible brand.

My G31 stickered at EUR 90k. I love my car, but MSRP just defies all logic.

You’re correct it’s absolutely insane it’s it

Better lease and release it

Always trying to make this as a marketing material is beyond me and it’s getting stale and boring. Every company does this, but rarely make it an advertising campaign. And what exactly are they trying to highlight here, the car doesn’t fall off a slope and can hold traction on uneven strips of ice and road? It’s not like AWD is the new sliced bread.

Atleast it’s the theme BMW decided to pick since pitching the G60 teasers to the audience.

Enjoy in good spirits, hate me all you want

Just bring them to AZ in the summer with their glass roofs, heated seats, and steering wheels to test. That is a real test. Let's see how the 48v battery cooling holds up Ask the Tesla folks about their mileage at 70mph in 117 temps...

All the recent renders are pretty close to the real deal. A lot of ppl seem to have seen it already.

The front is sometimes a bit off, but most of the renders are very close.
It should'nt be a surprise to anyone, how the M5 will look when revealed.

And it's a heavy wolf indeed.
