So there really is no roof rails on all the M50i?? I can’t believe how much they add as it looks odd without them.

That's a manufacturing error. Some of the early builds forgot them.

Supposedly they can get the roof rails installed by the dealer but many feel that will lead to problems with rattles and leaks.

Thanks for sharing,

Great to finally see 747M wheels in a video, also first time I could see the tow hook look at the back. Very glad I did not opt for a glossy wood trim interior on mine. Now if someone would then finally take delivery and start putting out some more in-depth videos, especially on the exhaust note...

That's what I thought too until I compared glossy vs matte in person. I switched my mind back to glossy. Although I am going with an all black interior, so that makes a difference. It's a bit too stark with all black and matte trim in my opinion. Needs a little pop from the gloss to break up the monotony.

Interesting, this M50i example does not look to have the inverted "L" bars under the driving lights I have seen on other M50i's Even with shadowline, they don't appear to be there.
