Almost perfect spec G87 just sitting in stock!

Wow, twighlight, on gold 1000M and full MP kit, just ready to go!

Just a pity it doesn’t have the carbon seats but it sure is lovely

Might take a trip to see it on the weekend and see what I think in person.

Really depends on what you would call perfect.
My perfect absolutely must have a six speed manual and bucket seats. However, yes, the purple with the gold and all of the stuff is otherwise perfect.

I always avoid cars with dealer-installed accessories as they either charge msrp for said accessories or mark-ups. But I also do all my own work, so I get the parts much cheaper & install them myself.

I know why it's having trouble selling, they installed the steering wheel on the wrong side! Must've been a Friday afternoon build.

If it was in the US I'd buy it and cancel my order.

I may sound contrary here, but some of the M Performance carbon exterior add-ons are just not my bag.
I like the rear lip and the front air dam inserts, but some of the other bits just look tacky to me.
Twighlight is awesome though. Love that color.

Yeah, those Albatross wings on that front splitter are hideous. I am also not a fan of the rims (then again, I am not a fan of any BMW rims...the style of them are just not to my liking).

Here they are for reference on my 2024 ZB if you didn’t come across them in one of my other posts yet. Side note: I found I can pull the source URL for the one time I uploaded these to this forum and reuse the attachments that way lol

Overall agreed on most the MP CF parts for the G87. I picked what I thought actually look decent on this car (MP CF spoiler that’s on the referenced car, CF rear diffuser, mirror caps). DIYed all of it so far. Only other MP CF part I’d consider is the front air dams. The rest make this thing look like it’s from 2000s era fast and the furious

No I do agree to some extent, the wheel arch trims for example. They need removed and set on fire. I’d also prefer the hi hoop spoiler to the one fitted but could live with it.

Thanks! I have a TP on order so this thread is perfect as I’ve asked before for examples but no one had theirs yet

From what I gather carbon seats are uncomfortable.

At my local dealer a while back and was shown the green car. Was sort of interested until I saw the seats...

By all means go look at the car. Looking and deciding what one likes or doesn't like before one buys is part of the fun of buying a new car.

From your experience or based on what you've heard? I have them and have no complaints. Getting in/out requires a little extra attention but it only takes a couple days to nail down the technique. Plus once you're seated it's a pretty comfy place to be.

You need to sit and drive in them before making a decision.
When I’ve asked this I got the it’s great once you get in more than it’s uncomfortable all the time.

People have said if you are a larger person it might not be the right choice.

That is just too much. And all that carbon fiber on a car without the buckets.

It’s like someone shot the carbon fiber parts cannon at it to drive up the price.

I’m sure someone will buy it. From the days my brother sold cars “there is an ass for every seat” mantra still rings true.
