Back to a BMW after my Toyota GT86 got totaled for hail damage. It got hauled away this morning and this showed up in the afternoon.

Very nice !

Congrats on the sexy car

[RockCrusher]

Very nice.

Love my 2024 230ix.

[KaliaHaze]

The % of G42 owners who came from the FT86 family is hilariously high. I’m one of them… lol.

[CatDaddyJones]

Really nice cars fellas. I did love the feel and road balance of the 230 in my test drives!

[bungleaio]

Looks stunning, enjoy

I'm curious to hear your thoughts comparing the GT86 to the 230i after you put some miles on it. Most should be pretty obvious, but still interested.

Congratulations!!

Thundernight is a great color.

What seat dolor did you go with? I have tacora red leather seats. The red and purple look so good together.

I've got a 225/45-18 square setup (848M wheels). Does anyone happen to know if the wheels would also be a square setup (guessing 7.5x18 ET25)?

I'll try here first and move to the Wheels/Tires section if needed. Just trying to avoid popping off/on a front & rear to check, if I can

Do you think you can snap a couple more photos of your interior please. I'm ordering a 2025 for my wife in Thundernight and trying to convince her that red will look so good with it and not go with boring black. Thanks in advance!

Sure!!
Here’s a few of the driver’s side

Congrats. I came from owning a 2013 Subaru BRZ for 9 years when I got my 2022 M240i.

[Aramis1919]

Not sure why but nearly all UK cars come with the larger front tyres and bigger brakes......but nearly all US cars I see on here don't.

[Aramis1919]

Ooops sorry.....I see the car is a 230i and not the M240i.

My first 230i, a 2022 with BG exterior color, came with the Tacora seat color. I liked it.

Not my first car with red seats.

See pic of my 2006 GTO...

I've been driving a loaner 230i rwd m-sport as of late and it's honestly near perfect in my opinion. In comfort it's sleek and in SP+ it really has a rugged engaging feel. The only knock is that stock output should be a bit higher for what the car costs. And the oem exhaust is pretty muted, but both can be upgraded aftermarket.
