It's an entirely different market than the 1M and what you don't see here is some of the finer details etc. as they are not included in the parts images. There is some aggressiveness that has yet to be revealed... the shots above do give some clues. The car looks fantastic for the intended purchaser and use. Compared to the outgoing model it is a huge step.

I am not so sure why people think the 1M was so aggressive aside from the rear haunches which were functionally needed- with a bigger car that was designed from the get go to get wider wheels that is not necessary on the M5/M6. Much of the elements from the X5M -> 1M are in this car such as the larger more square bumper cutouts, the air curtains and the rear bumper look- not much is different. The biggest difference is yet to come.
