I promise you that's not going to be the case, take my word for it. Or you can bet me a 6 pack of beer if you want.

It'll be horizontal like the X5/6M.

Why are you so confident that it will be vertical like the X5M and X6M and not like the M4?Also why would Scott26 post the wrong info?He just saw the M2 at the Frankfurt auto show.

Make it a 6 pack of Heineken if you are wrong.

Done deal. I live in South Carolina and have my own sources too

And you're on. A 6 pack of Heineken (or Paypal equivalent $) that the reflectors will be vertical.

Then I see some potential for the aftermarket folks. Blackline reflectors.
