I am buying this one for the reason above that Encanto points out: this is about a new segment and target market for BMW. You don't like it? Buy a "regular" G82. You like it? Get in line behind me and the other fortunate 149!! |

No. I've never pulled over any mods. I've seen members from this forum driving around though. |

Another member mentioned how people interested in this G82 iteration likely have other cars/daily drivers. That's my case. This one's going to adorn my garage or, potentially, Hudson Stables, for a couple years, maybe more. From a marketing perspective, I think this BMW is close to pure genius. Though the response on Bimmerpost has been mixed at best, the less hardcore but, admittedly, flashier among us will have a different say, imo. |

G8X gains 400 lbs. and a bad boob job. It's not some evolutionary product, that's why BMW isn't promoting it as such. Nothing against guys who like what the G8X is about, or even this Kith edition. Acting like the rest of us are running around with muskets and minidisc players is a bit of a stretch.

Do you think BMW and all the sponsored vendors here are fighting over just 3,000 potential customers? Even if only 5% of Bimmerpost registered members actually owned BMWs and the 95% are non-BMW owners, that's already $1B in buying power at an average of $40,000 per vehicle. And I highly doubt only 5% of Bimmerpost members actually own BMW and the rest don't. That number is possibly much higher and this also excludes frequent lurkers that are not registered members.

I’ll stick by my estimate, especially considering that over 75% of US BMW buyers/lessors are buying overpriced SUVs, not sports cars.
