Damnit, I wish I waited a year for the Carbon roof.

I don't think we're getting the sport seats in the M240i with the refresh, only because in the Canada/USA market, those are the base seats for the M2. I bet they want to keep those as part of a reason to upgrade to the M2 (a small part, I know) and not have overlap in that regard. Plus apparently we're all fat according to the rest of the world, LOL.

Hey, new user. On the list for a MK8.5 Golf R but from what I've seen so far the redesign might be a downgrade. Saw an M240i in person and liked it a lot. Skyscraper Grey and carbon roof are interesting, though I'm usually not a fan of the usual white/silver/grey/black cars on the road.

Anyone think this combo might work, or would it clash?
Skyscraper Grey RWD
Upgraded wheel/tire package (maybe some new options)
Carbon roof
Keep the Cerium Grey accents

Thinking maybe the Cerium Grey and carbon could compliment each other, though I'm not sure how "warm" the CF is. Also not sure how it will clash with the Skyscraper Grey and the blue stock calipers.

Isn't Cerium Grey usually dropped for the LCI?

New to BMWs, if so, interesting. Replaced by what?

Yes. Usually for chrome/silver.

If the LCI ends up being MY26, I’ll just push my build back a year.
