For that reason, BMW has also used it for the mirror caps.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"HtmlContent\" class=\"MarkUpWrapper-sc-t20i90-0 dsxNZr\">\n<p>New alloy options are also available, with the pick of the bunch being the smaller 21in winter wheels. Oh, and we\u2019re told that \u201cfor the future BMW M Performance model with V8 engine an M Performance Sound silencer system is planned for specific markets outside Europe.\u201d Boooo.<\/p>\n<p>Inside it\u2019s mostly about practicality, so alongside some sporty floor mats there are also new holders and adapters that allow you to stick phones, tablets and even clothes hangers onto the back of the front seats.
