It looks weird with Chrome window trim. . . usually BMW Sport Packaged cars have black or shadow trim.

I don't know about new cars, but the old M cars all came with regular chrome trim, like the regular series cars...and shadowline was an option...

I have some sad news for you mate, Audi quattro GmbH currently proceed some study test on a new Audi B7 RS4 "Plus" version available for late 2008. It's a lightweight version of the RS4 with DSG gear box and the best... a FSI V8 4.2L engine of 480 or 500hp ! Bye Bye future BMW E90 M3 CSL under every road conditions conceivable ! :prr:

Well, it looks like only the E34 M5 and E26 M6 had chrome window trim. Even all the old E28 M5s and E30 M3s all had shadowline window trim.

do you have the specs of the CSL ?? i don't think so, and clearly theyre gonna crash that thing called RS4 "plus" - still theres no match for the E46 CSL.
Seriously all the way the have to go to compete, the S4 is supposed to match the M3, but it can't it gets awfuly owned, then the RS4 (the past one) which matches the M3, but if it follows the order it should compete with the CSL... double, triple, cuadruple ownage !! and WTF is RS4 "plus" ? an attempt to match the CSL which following the pattern its rival should be an M3 GTR. which in other words should be Audi would get owned... again... whats next ?? "RS4 plus DTM we can't get more words in it but we want to beat the M3" ???
