So they want about $4,668 USD for that "carbon edition" consisting of six tack-ons with "M performance" in their names, out of eleven in total. (Not sure what they mean by "M brakes".....perhaps ///M logo stencilled on the calipers ?)

Well, considering the vehicle performance impact of that carbon edition package, I can think of many more useful things on which to spend $4,668, such as booze. BMW is getting tacky and silly.

They seriously don't have this for the sportiest vehicle in the 5-series lineup (excluding M5)? The M550iX.

WTF?

Slapping a name on something that already exists as an an M performance package?
This is just M performance package+.

Being a BMW fan is starting to be like defending your favorite band that's starting to experiment in other genres lol

The only good recent BMW announcement was the "pure" edition of the new M3.

I was really hoping when I clicked on this it was a experimental model / proof of concept, showing us how light a 5 series could be if parts of the chassis and body were made from carbon.

looks like the parts accountant found they are sitting on all these parts and figured a package deal may sell them.

I'm going to offend people with this but BMW realiZes there is a bunch of money sitting in Arabs, Chinese, and Indian immigrant money.

Go to a college campus and you'll see CARBON ULTRA FAST SPORT GT F1 ÉDITION cars everywhere being leased by exchange students using Dads money.

Go to track day and it's all base M cars or older M cars or beat up 335i's.

BMW know what they're doing but this stuff isn't designed to appeal to us, it's for parting suckers with their money.

Is that a joke? I think they were announced same time as the car?

Maybe you were meaning more CF diffuser etc though?

I guess you are right, BMW know their markets: give them "performance" pap if they wanna pay for it. Carbon fiber is probably the best thing ever invented to lure in (& rip off) car posers.

However, having said that, I'd love to have a CF hood or CF trunk lid on my 2019 M550i, painted body colour of course, if that could reduce the curb weight by some 200 lb.

Correct....some lips, diffusers, etc. I don't classify a vinyl sticker as a performance part lol.
