Porsche makes nice stuff..

Why can't BMW make a decent set of rubber matts?

All of their parts are really nice.

I agree 100%...I just got a new 991 C2S with these rubber mats. These are the best rubber mats I ever had. I had all type of rubber mats from BMW and none have been as good of quality (looks, weight, material, and locking mechanism) as the Porsche ones.

If I recall, the rubber mats I had in my 135 were nice - slim, effective, and fit nicely.

In the M5, I feel the rubber mats take away from the luxury aesthetics. I planned on getting the stitched, logo versions, but realized that I like that the basic carpet ones do not draw attention to them (they blend in). Get dirty? I'll buy another set. Now, perhaps in the roughest winter weather I will throw some rubber mats in the front.
