Interior colors are childish and belong on a 90's Honda Civic.

Weight is unforgivable. 3,800-3,900 pounds? FFS...

50/50 on pulling name off the dealer's list.
50/50 ⁉️

I'd text my therapist for some input

Looking forward to seeing this in person. I had an F87 I traded on my G82 manual M4. I'm not interested in in the new G87 but I'm pleasantly surprised by the launch photos. I think it'll sell well.

I have no idea how this car is heavier than mine though?

It reminds me of some of my dates: in some lights, I'm like "This could work!, but in others I'm like, "What in the world am I even thinking??"

I just took delivery of a 2022 Cayman that I was planning to keep forever… now I'm debating this G87.. I just wish it was available in silver or dark gray. Brooklyn Gray is meh..

Overall, the BMW M3 and M4 were the biggest drivers of growth last year, according to BMW, even though we’re not being given any exact numbers just yet. “The response to the new generation of the BMW M3 and BMW M4 has been simply overwhelming,” reports Timo Resch, Vice President Customer, Brand and Sales at BMW M GmbH. “We can therefore expect demand for these iconic sports cars to continue on an upward curve in 2022.


https://www.carthrottle.com/post/big...d-sales-again/

BMW M GmbH posted yet another year of record sales, growing by 13.4 per cent to 163,542 units in 2021. The result means M has more than doubled its yearly sales in the space of five years. We haven’t seen a model-by-model breakdown yet, but BMW has said the new G80 M3 and G82 M4 “performed especially well.”



Kind of funny how people complaining so much about the M3/M4 on this very forum and other social media spaces before it was unveiled, then in the end the sales of the car is setting record numbers for the M division.

I can finally breath a sigh of relief. Love the way it looks.

Props to the guys who didn't waiver during those awful leaks.

…j/k …
But Jesus wouldn't care about the weight because he could drive it across water. 😂🤣

Besides the odd blocky face this car is a home run. Great price.

I may actually consider an LCI model considering my 2021 will be 4 years old at that point.

I'll look forward to the Comp version.

Yep! I'm not even an immediate player and I felt it was touch and go there for a while.

Now you guys with #1 slots get to have fun picking out the specs.

As for me, I'm out of the running for a while.

But take my money now please for the #1 slot in 2028.

The rear is less bulbous looking in this color combo. Black wheels look great over the red! Not too bad as compared to the ZB shots.

An M Car without the iconic side vents...is probably a premiere and I don't like it!

Congrats. Porsche these days seem to be asking for at least $85-90k+ for a Boxster S. The M2 is a straight up bargain in comparison. A Porsche dealer told me they probably won't fill an allocation for a stripper Boxster, I'd have to tag on a bunch of options. I don't think they want my business.

Where's thundernight?

Weight increase, lack of colors, and questionable exterior styling just doesn't do it for me. New interior options are nice until you're forced to deal with ID8. Disappointed overall

I'm a little jealous of the flared fenders. But it's not like my car is ugly.

Not a fan of the front of the new M2, looks weird. Interior and backside look great though.

Well, I don't hate it. But also don't love it. Probably going to stew on this a while before making a decision to move from the f87 to g87
