Just saw the cars at Weatherford BMW

All I can say is WOWOWOWOWOWOW! The G82 is beyond amazing and the carbon seats are an absolute must-have. I must say the G80 to me was overall meh and I did not feel was distinguished enough from my F80 to be worthy of an upgrade. More thoughts below and pictures (including bonus photos of the RS6 I managed to FINALLY see in the flesh which was also beyond amazing). What a wonderful day.
  • Carbon bucket seats are perfect - I did not feel uncomfortable in the slightest; they are nice and snug on me and wrapped really nicely
  • Carbon seats make ingress/egress more challenging haha (need to work on core)
  • My crotch had no issues with the little piece on the seat
  • These cars look WAY better in person; even as I was taking photos while standing there it was crystal clear that they do not photograph well. The cars are beautiful
  • I have a strong preference for the M4 - the curves are just perfect and the back does not appear to jut out as much as it does in photos; the shape is just so sexy
  • SPY is gorgeous and eye-catching; I probably wouldn't get it because it feels like it will be too popular but it looks really really good
  • Rear of the G82 looked pretty spacious I was surprised. Was too excited with the front to get in the back but it looked like a solid amount of space
  • The standard seats did not feel any lower than my F80 seats did which was disappointing
  • The carbon seats DID feel lower than my F80 seats which I lovedddd (I'm not sure if standard seats in the G82 are also lower than the G80)
  • Did I say the cars look amazing
  • Strong preference for the G82's looks; I feel like the front end of the car just belongs on the G82 because it screams sportscar to me vs. the G80 that is very stately looking
  • None of the interiors looked good to me; KO was WAY too orange and the blue was not a nice blue (Silverstone will be the way for me)
  • Rear end of the G82 is very wide
  • I look forward to LCI taillights on the G82; they are the biggest letdown on the car (the white bits look cheap)
