Has anyone seen an HEA optioned with the M performance suspension like this one? First I’ve seen this.

[Game]

Nope.

Can we get pics of the car once it gets PDI'd?

Ditto, wanna see

[rk95]

Here’s some more pics. It isn’t mine. I am number one on the list and just got an allocation but was told this was an HEA car that wasn’t offered to me

We need side profile photos! Please…

[rk95]

Only ones I snagged

That's either still on shipping blocks or the "performance upgrade" is for baja racing.

Agreed.

Though I definitely believe that the shipping blocks are still in place.

*Edit, with everything still on it from shipping it more than likely has not been PDI’ed.

Odds this is actually an HEA and not customer spec?

No, the BMW kit is 5-20mm drop - that's not even an inch. Half an inch of it's set to half way down.

The front is clearly dropped to be level with the rear and it looks great for a "spec" G87.

Here's a photo of my side profile stock

I agree, the BMW drop is just 10mm with the capacity for 20. This isn’t a straight on angle so it’s not “picture perfect” but there’s nothing to really suggest it still has the blocks and it already looks a lot better than the standard .

New suspension always settles a bit. Some spacers will fill in the wheel gap nicely. Definitely an improvement over stock.

Those wheels look so good on the G87.

No, a first. Dealer must of added it, we’ve seen a few of the Carbon bits added to HEA’s. It’s sweet though. If you get a chance can you ask them how long it added at the Port? It’s on my spec.

They look great. Second picture looks like they are Bi-color

Dude, your car is looking dope. Well done sir.

That certain profile shot that highlights the concavity is my favorite. I just stare at it sometimes for like 10min in anticipation of a proper wheel fitment. I can't wait to get my spacers on this Friday and then order a HAS kit.

Sorry for the thread jack just thought the photos would show stock fitment issues.

Not with it just arriving now.

When the light hits at a certain angle it only shows the outer spokes. That's why I love the 827's, they're full of surprises. Kind of like the G87 itself: at certain angle you just don't notice things until like the 10th time.

Definitely a HEA, the 50 Jahre emblems are a pretty good hint, not to mention the rest of the spec is standard HEA. A few dealers did modify their builds with Port options.

And the OP said as much.

Good call on the 827M. You save weight too. I was disappointed that the 963M was not offered in Frozen Gold like in the M5 CS. That would have been dope on G87.

Factory performance parts don’t get that aggressive.
