I’m fairly certain the spoiler was port installed. There’s a fair amount of MP parts available now

As far as the buckets go, this is the only example I’ve seen thus far. Outside of the press cars . No clue how the dealer got them on their HEA , maybe some juice with the uppers at BMW AG

That’s till empty. Gas Range, not Mileage.

That would be a difficult task in transport mode.

Good catch! Difficult to see that on an iPhone.

But yeah, I will have to live that. I'm going to talk long and hard to them, and inspect the under carriage for any signs, etc.

I forgot to mention - the cars journalists drove in Arizona didn't reach break-in miles and they were bombing them.

Unfortunately this had happened in the past. Brand new 1M. Caught on phone video. They were dumb enough to record this and share. Not saying it will happen again. https://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=581727

Yep that's why I was careful to say earlier that they weren't dealer miles. I suppose it's possible that it was treated that way from the factory to the VPCs, I just doubt it.

Since the HEAs are not "ordered" by the dealer, did BMW decide to randomly add the spoiler? Maybe someone can chime in to see if the dealerships can have port installed parts?

The brake pedal sits lower. The clutch pedal fells the same as my G80. I am 6"2 and can't fit in the backseat. My head is hitting the headliner. Less room in the backseat than my F87C. It looks much better in person than in pictures.

Ahhh! New Century finally received a G87. I may have to roll over there and check it out. What's the mark-up on the car (...I apologize in advance if it has already been mentioned; I haven't read all 18 pages)?

Shadowline headlights are a must if you're custom ordering with black wheels. Even without black wheels they make tons of sense.

They let me took a bunch of photos and even let me sit inside and fire it up. Will attach some pictures below and something’s I noticed:
1. Manual shifter is somehow very notchy. Completely different experience from last time I drove the G82. It has more resistance and less rubbery?? I’m not sure if it’s new car but it’s not really that far from my ND2 Miata’s shifter. (ND2’s more direct vs G87’s more resistance)
2. The shifter sits a bit higher and closer to driver side, probably due to shorter wheel base and smaller cabin set up. It makes the whole shifting position more ideal than bigger brothers’ G80/82.
3. At least for manual production ones, the direct front and side cooling have mesh protection, just the bottom ones (oil cooler?) completed naked.
4. From what I see in person, ZB is very close to the first two pictures I took. Somehow my other pictures felt washed away from auto adjustments but that’s not what I see in person. It looks really nice sitting in front of me and I really like it. I may change it from BG to this.
5. Tire is Michelin, so this guy got lucky and won the lottery. My dealership is located in Atlanta, GA just in case you figure out some pattern.

Which dealer in Atlanta was this?

That's where I bought my F87 June of 2020 for 9% under MSRP. They took my last Challenger (hence my username) in for trade on it. Drove it from there back to PA, got tickets in two states.

Haha that sounds about right sir! I like them, SA are pretty chill.

[zero21]

My SA said sales were clear any time today after they open. I should be there about 9:15am.

[752002]

I was told 9:30 this morning. 🫡
