But where does this leave the G82/G83? Will they also get it by 11/22? Or will they get it when the G22/G23/non-i4-G26 do in 3/23? |

Bring it to the states. I put my wagon money where my mouth is! I'll come back to brand. I'll even settle for being forced into the Auto (though a MT would be welcome)

This is indeed interesting. This would mean that a significant part of the M3 interior would change after just 1.5 years since its introduction.
I wonder what they will do with the M4 since the 4 series LCI will be in about 3 years or so. Will they change the M4 interior at the same time as the M3 (which means before the actual 4 series) or will the M4 have the "old" interior until the 4 series LCI (which would mean that the M3 and the M4 would have different interiors).

I think the big takeaway here should be that production will be continuous through the end of G21 series prod. The original leaks concurrent with the teaser announcement called for a limited run of ~1000 units total.
This tells me demand is higher than initially anticipated... if one is hoping for a US run this might be a small step in the right direction the i4 dash isn't really news because it was already noted in the upcoming model thread the 3 series LCI would include it. the M3 follows the 3 series for interior and rear end, 4 series for front exterior. Also, if you really look into it the i4 dash is not that big of a difference. As a design element it is 1 continuous glass panel but functionally it is still 2 separate screens following most of the same function as today. In the current design the two screens are basically on top of each other this just connects the gloss surround as a design element and increases size of the dash screen somewhat Last edited by xlover; 03-04-2021 at 01:26 PM.. |

It is and likely will be my last manual ever. Will replace it with an RS after this. The E63 is actually gone. I have a panamera gts wagon on order. The e63 was nice but had more than a handful of things I hated. First and last mercedes. But it was fun on track, my wife and I put these things to work!! (My macan GTS has seen a few track days as well. If I own it, it earns it's keep)

Wow, so does this mean that the G80 and G82 will come with the giant screen also starting from LCI onwards? I REALLY don't want this screen on my future build but i'm currently not ready to buy a pre-LCI model just yet.

After my experience with the F80 launch I'll be waiting for the LCI v1 or v2 before pulling the trigger this time. |

Gauging by the interest level, G81 will sell and sell well. Bypassing USA and Canadian markets would not be a profitable decision.
