details....

Does anyone know what the exhausts will look like on the LCI car w/ M perf. pack?

The 50d features black chrome oval tips. Maybe the 5.0 with M perf. will have the same? I wonder if they'll still use the round tips for a 3.5 M perf.? The M sport LCI X5 3.5 switched to oval tips and it also uses a sport muffler.

Interestingly there seem to be some LCI X6 parts already showing up on realoem.com albeit with no part numbers (i.e. there are 4 different fog light surrounds shown [silver lci, black lci, pre-lci and 50d with just horizontal slats). Also shown is a sport exhaust for the 3.5i. So, it seems that that's a good possibility there will be a bespoke exhaust on M perf. cars (at least the 3.5 - the V8 has a great exhaust note already). BMW has a history of not fully releasing all the details on the various option packages.

Has anyone heard any rumors/details on the LCI exhaust?
