Arrival of G42 M240i xDrive in Portimao Blue

swampfox94 · 11-04-2021, 10:15 PM

Quite pricey, I paid only like 4K more for my m2comp

khanyam4 · 11-04-2021, 10:27 PM

The M2 is going to fiyah

BMW engineers personally perform liposuction on the passenger.

I wish. Here's PB, Interlagos, and Le Mans.

I had lemans on my m3 and regretted it. Interlagos might be the most beautiful blue in Ms history.

here's the e92 with LMB. I'm also never doing black wheels on blue again.

On the m240 I'm thinking pricing is pretty spot on. Yeah it's close to the M2C but what you're getting isn't crazy far off from it. Lots of M bits.

Poffman · 11-05-2021, 12:08 AM

A buddy of mine just ordered one of these, forwarded this along. He'll be thrilled to see it I suspect

thanks for sharing!!

Mostly like it but I cannot imagine buying a new compromise car during the chip shortage era. So weird to have missing features forever.

I agree that m240 has a lot of offer so the pricing being close to the outgoing m2c is ok.

I don't know what you mean about Le Mans; your e92 looks awesome. I love that color. Yes, IB is amazing, but yours looks great!

Oh, and for the love of god bmw, please give us the option for color matched side skirts. The black is terrible.

Portimao is beautiful….especially when you see phytonic every day. Beats estoril too.

wunderbar911 · 11-05-2021, 03:40 AM

Blue is not bad but definitely need to offer color matched side skirts. The thundernight metallic is growing on me but I wonder if that color won't be as timeless?

Advevo · 11-05-2021, 07:15 AM

1750 kg do you need a truck license to drive one?

cncmastr · 11-05-2021, 07:20 AM

2021 is a bad year to buy a car, with all these options missing.

That's one way to keep the weight down.

I disagree. Paint is too similar to Estriol blue. Too many deleted specs. Maybe the upcoming M2.

Ooo this thing is clean. Can't wait to see the m2c

At least its glossy plastic and not matte. The new WRX is nightmare made real. I wonder if the new models will get sold with the stick figure family decals you put on the back window?

That being said I ordered mine in black so the quarter panels won't distract.

mad villain · 11-05-2021, 12:45 PM

Anyone else think it looks like there's huge panel gaps around the front grilles in the first two pics? Or is that just me.
