2015 BMW M3 and M4 close look

Bimmerpost forum member “Sir Loin” took some close look photos of the 2015 M3/M4 in the 2014 Vancouver Auto Show, the following pictures are from his original message in bimmerpost.com forum.

From one of the detailed photos I find there looks like to be a build quality issue around the side rear view mirror area: the gaps between the window trim moulding and the A pillar metal is not uniform. We hope the final production vehicles can address this issue:
