well that just means they will be turbo (emission/fuel economy while still making power), and definitely have to be wider (for side impact safety/crush crumble zone), then to make it look "right" proportion it will be longer (given its wider).

Guess the only part will be the old is steering feel and they can probably put more of the M5 stuff into lower range to make it corner better
