So the time has come to say goodbye to my F82 Competition after almost 3 years of ownership as I'm picking up my G82 Competition xDrive in an hour!

I'll be sad to see the F82 go as I've loved driving it...but I cannot wait to slip into those carbon buckets!

First pics from the dealership - note that the car isn't pristine because I asked them not to clean it, as it's going in for ceramic coating in 2 days!

Funny you should say that as I thought exactly the same when I uploaded the photos just now!

I need to check tomorrow when it's light!

Congrats on the upgrade!

Agreed it looks like it's still on blocks but it could just be the angle of the pics.

Nice ride. Only question I have is, why CQuartz UK 3.0? Especially if you're getting it installed by a detailer? It's like a hobby coating. It's a very good coating, but it's also like $60 on Amazon. Detailers have access to much better coatings, like Feynlabs and CQuartz Finest Reserve. Those are Pro only coatings, and offer nearly double the performance. Just curious.

Not 100% sure TBH but something to do with that its developed for application / use in shitty UK weather conditions - not entirely sure though

It's a fairly good coating. To me, it's just more of a hobby coating. But it also depends on what you paid for it. I'd expect paint correction and Feynlabs or CQuartz Finest Reserve, to be around £1,500 to £1,800
