25MY G80/G82 Have a power increase to 530hp

But why market it as having more power unless the 3 & 4 are making more power now too?
Will there be any hardware updates? Is this a software tune? Or is this simply reissuing the "correct" numbers?
So many questions.

The extra power is not coming from a recuperation system.

The new wheel option is just a different color of the same wheel style.
Any chance over the life of the G87 in the US other interior seat materials will be offered like alcantara, cloth or SensaTec?

aesthetically appears it's just new color for available wheels.

Makes me wonder, could this actually be an M2C after all and Mineral Red is the launch color? No idea, total speculation on my part.
Hint: translate color names into German before searching.

Even then that's a big maybe.
95% MY24 will come with only some interior changes, new 8.5 or idrive 9 from factory, new colors, the hp bump while the LCI/M2C after that will come with the new headlights, taillights , gloss black painted/ carbon fibre parts to the front bumper, mirror caps, side skirts and to the trunk spoiler to make it look more aggressive and another hp bump over that 475 + maybe small adjustments to the suspension and a possible xdrive (if this will not be kept for the supposedly future CS variant).

Probably not as I am already on the list for a LCI.

Edit, I also have zero issues with TR on a G87.

Portimao is the first new thing I've heard that gives me even a small twinge of FOMO. But I'm not going to wait 2+ years for it.

Rubin Rot? This is a pearl Red that BMW currently have, and I guess a gemstone is a mineral?

If so a very different proposition to TR.

I heard that the G87 CS will be made in Germany and that alone will justify the price premium. Not Mexican steel, this will be proper German steel.
