That would be my choice, but has there been any indication that's happening? I'm under the impression that any xDrive variant would be paired with the ZF8.

This combo has died since 2018 with the F30 340xi I don’t think it will be back for a single car. If it’s back I will be the first one to put a deposit on one.

I'm waiting for better colors and if those aren't satisfactory, then the Individual program to come on-line. Le Mans blue has been dancing in my head since the G87 was introduced, but living with Thundernight on the G42 I wouldn't mind that color again either.

Only other requirement is it has to have the manual option, so I guess that would put me in the LCI category since the other 3 poll options will most likely (CS for sure) come neutered in that regards.

No indication that we will ever see an Xdrive manual but I can dream. Coming from a bunch of modified awd manual Subarus, It was tough to accept I could only get the s58 in manual with RWD but I did end up getting a manual M2 and it’s pretty fkn awesome.

My feeling is that the M2 with Xdrive will be the competition which will also be an LCI which I wonder what they will change design wise or will the LCI just be a massive tech update?

I did see an article online recently saying BMW aren’t interested in doing design LCI’s anymore and it’s all about the tech when it comes to the LCI.

An FBP (Frozen portimao blue) M2 with Xdrive will be perfect for the U.K.

I placed an order for the base in August, and my CA today confirmed I'm on the list for a CS as well. I hope the CS will be X-Drive, I really want that.

Interesting topic here. I would say the X-drive version which will more than likely also be the comp version. Not sure if I could afford the CS model though.

Have to say I'm surprised with the tally thus far, there are more people waiting on an M2c and/or xDrive model than the LCI. Also, a bit surprised at the percentage of those waiting on a CS. Thought that number would be much lower.

Any variant that is more track oriented and not a ZF8 auto.

This is where I am at as well, waiting for better colors or individual program. I'd love Thundernight or any other purple on this car. I would go for ZF8 though personally.
