How the hell did you get someone to offer you $91k for your G80?! That's insane, it already had decent miles on it didn't it? If I could make my money back on my G80 I would be tempted to pick up an AWD variant. Stick vs AWD is a dilemma though

When I went from F13 M6 to F82 M4 , I felt a big lack of power/torque/acceleration/luxurious even though M4 was more agile and fun to drive especially because of stunning Manual tranny. Switching to F92 M8 smiles came back to my face. How do you compare your F93 to G80 in term of power/torque/acceleration/cockpit (and I believe your G80 is in full leather the same as F93)? It's obvious your M3 is much lighter ( ~500 lb?) and smaller (~12"?) than M8 Gran coupe and of course more agile but basically how S63 performs over S58?

Beautiful color. Looks Like candy apple red.
Looks great with black skirts. Seeing this color makes me wish I had some contrast on my BSM.

LOL thanks man- its an interesting color that has so many light swings. Its getting coated this week--- paint is pretty good though already based on my eyeball check. Quote:
Its really what floats your boat as some want luxury and are willing to just enjoy a better GT car in the F90/93 but I like to drive so my daily choices are based on needs. Right now its the G80 more than the F93. Steering, Feel of the chassis, engine aggression, handling, and an actually decent upgraded cabin over the F8X is big. Quote:
Ill post the latest auction sales at Manheim; its crazy with the inventory shortages. These are the latest auction not retail sales on M3 G80 Comps- I cant determine the specs from here but they are not all super high msrps. Its what the market will bear so I took advantage plus getting the Adventurin at sticker made it all so much better.

This car comes in about 400 lbs light from general scale weights posted here vs the F90 (rwd one). Its just an easier car drive and the steering is much better than the M8 (I would know). Drive the car, its drives much lighter than it is vs the fatty you got or the even fatter car I have. Its not even close and Im on my 2nd G80. BMW did a great job with the chassis and the valving of the dampers; its just back to old school. Im not a review lover but almost every single review comes back as what myself and other owners here are experiencing. Just test drive it properly and not in the basic modes.

Agree F93 and even F90 are big boats compare to G80 but I was comparing F92 with G82! As I said time to test drive!

Dont be defensive… we talk all the time and I always respect your advices and experiences. Before getting M8 I asked you to give me some hints the same as other cars and appreciated as usual. And you know cars are just toys for us nothing more and can be replaced any time! Here I was just wondering how it feels and then quoted on other member since he quoted on my post thats it. My question was not to put down your gorgeous car at all… Again congrats on your car and I will try to not quote on your posts again ✋

With how far cars have come discussions about speed or road grip are almost esoteric. How long can you really hold any of these car WOT on the street? Maybe 5-6 seconds from a light and probably 3-4 seconds from a roll. In the last few years feel has become way more important to me than a .2 second differential 0-60.
The G80 feels much more nimble and connected than the F90 I had previously. It is also way less connected than my Civic TypeR. In a canyon all three are fairly equal in raw speed more because of safety than ability. Get what makes you excited to look at/drive and have fun! |
