Indeed, can't wait for my current lease to end next summer. This will tide me over till the G87 refresh, RWD of course.

Does this car have lumbar support, are the seats sensatec or leather.

Is there a place where you can pull out under your knees for additional support

Such a great design off the bat without being a "real M" car. The G-series M2 will only look better.

This design is much more appealing to me than the G8x, and will likely replace my F82 M4cs after my lease is up.

Currently best looking auto in the entire Bimmer line up.E46ish size wise. Looking forward to the M2 ZCP/CS.

Imran@Evolve are the pedals offset to the outside, similar to F87?

I’m curious of that car as well, might very well trade our incoming M240i for a M2C or CS if it’s as good as expected. The last full ICE M car I’ve heard. After it’s the M hybrid and EV era. Chances are M want to make a last splash for petrol heads.

Thank you for the kind words. Everything changed for us with the launch of the G80 - it was the first time we had been invited onto any kind of BMW press launch.

With regards to the actual car itself I didn't drive it or spend much time inside it so can't answer the specific questions about the seats and pedals.

Our demo car should be here end of January so expect more content then.
