How do those coilovers work with the cars adaptive suspension? Are they firmer than stock, like the one, say, in a 228i with M Performance suspension?

Different springs basically

The Adaptive suspension remains

BMW gotta have some of the ugliest designs in the game right now. Sad because I'd be a potential M2 customer otherwise.

Looking at this while in a moving car and it's making me nauseous. I think I'm car sick or this car is making me sick.

Just when I thought it couldn't look any worse. The exterior is absolutely awful. Interior looks phenomenal though, the carbon buckets really make it

No M Performance part is really "functional". BMW has indirectly stated that these parts are more for aesthetics more than anything.

Yes, having a carbon roof lowers the weight and COG, but you're really not going to feel the difference, at least not on its own.

I was being sarcastic, that car actually looks quite the opposite

Looks fantastic? LOL

Keep telling yourself that- this thread proves my initial thoughts on the LOOKS!

Agree, they tie in the tail lights better. Also kinda gives me older Audi R8 vibes. Also like the front bumper air intake CF inserts, makes the front look more aggressive and less "chunky" but definitely not feeling the wrap around splitter.

Would like to get these, hopefully they're not crazy expensive.

The G87 doesn't hold a candle to the F87C in terms of looks. Interiors and engines can always be upgraded.

Can hope the aftermarket can come up with something like this company with the M3/M4. Honestly the M3 and M4 doesn't need the help as much as the Non-M 3 and 4 series needs a cleaner looking grill.

Only thing that can save the M3/M4 hideous front, is a switch to 3.0 CSL front at LCI. Even then, it still won't be a looker.

The Adaptive suspension remains
But they have adjustable spring perches, so they're not the stock damper. I'm thinking they're defeating the adaptive functionality; and changing the OEM dampers for passive coilovers.

This made me laugh. They just replaced the horrible front of the M3/4 with another terrible design when they literally had a clean sheet to start from. Looks like the bottom of a vacuum cleaner.
