Joe Achilles' G87 M2 @ 3,500 Miles Final Verdict

Reluctant to post this because of the inevitable shitshow these reviews devolve into, but I've got extra popcorn that I need to get rid of.

Glad he liked it, and a lot of the stuff he didn't like is specific to the EU.

In the US, with a lower price and less nannies, the G87 is even better.

Yet again, I only see complaints about seating position from right hand drivers. What is up with the right hand layout in the G87?

Right handed human here. Zero issues. Ergonomically zero issues. All aspects of cockpit etc workable, vision etc.

Again these video's are a small representation of total ownership and have absurdly stupid impact for no real good reason

Test, buy and enjoy. Not working out, fkn sell it and try something else lol. No real new, news.

I don't think he meant drivers who are right-hand dominant - he was referring to cars that are right-hand drive like in England, India, Australia, etc.

I can't speak to the accuracy of that, but from the small sample, it does seem like most of the ergonomic complaints are coming from cars where the drivers sits on the right.

Yes, this is what I meant, ergo issues pointed out by reviewers from UK and India.
