You could get them way up there with dealer installed accessories. However, strictly speaking those aren’t really “options.”

Plus, if you wait for the next best thing, you are always going to be waiting.
Unless you already have your name on the list or willing to pay ADM, I'd say good luck. I think in this particular case, it's very realistic that we might not start to see these cars readily available for a long time. Not saying it's impossible to get a G8x at the moment, but after however long it's been out, it's also not a cakewalk either.

In my particular case, I have no problem waiting until LCI because:
1) Plenty of cars to enjoy that's already in the garage
2) Lack of availability of the G87, including test drive
3) Unsure about what's being offered as standard colors (check other threads). Individual might be a "must" and that also takes time
4) I personally don't see a point in owning both an F87 and G87, it's just too much of an overlap IMHO. With my F87C being one of my favorite cars I've ever purchased, the G87 will have to be ridiculously good to kick it out of the garage. On top of it being the last fully ICE M and of course with a manual, this would truly be the end of an era for me. So no problem in waiting for LCI and just doing it "right" one last time.

Is the Dark Horse is going to crush this thing by every important metric?

That remains to be seen. It would have to feel more nimble than the GT350R, which drove a bit big, loose and heavy compared to the F87. I drove them both (in fact did it again last month) and hands down the F87 (either OG or Comp) is a better driving car. Tighter, more agile, and just as fast.

Can Ford work miracles with the "Dark Horse"? I'm not so sure.

It's also very loud:

I've had loud Mustangs in the past, but not sure that reflects the typical BMW buyer today.

I’m still slightly struggling with the squareness of the bumper and air intakes. Really need to see this one in the flesh I think.

Especially with 19 days until the reveal. Plus it is bound to leak a day or two prior to that.
