I would probably go with the Fjord Blue full leather seats with a nice blue exterior color.Hopefully BMW will offer the M Carbon Bucket Seats as an option for the G87 M2.

I'd be pleasantly surprised if they offer carbon buckets on the G87, but that would make it an even more tempting proposition.

Blue on blue would look good, but I love the contrast of the orange still. Really brightens up the interior, and goes well with the rest of the black interior bits.

Nice combo, the 6Mt shifter looks similar to the F8X. The engine bay of the F8X is still the best looking with the carbon fiber strut brace. I'm not rally a fan of these seats, especially with the Alcantara...this car is brand new but the seats looks already old.

This is a perfect spec if you're planning on modding. A stripper with buckets and a 6 speed.

Yes - still don't know enough about lug nuts. Until then will need to stay on the fence.

Bad for the car though. Recently had the rubber gasket around one of the parking sensors on our X7 blown half-way out by a touchless wash that only uses high pressure water. $150 to repair at the dealership.

What a shame you can't option them as winter wheels

p.s. stop posting pics of black G80/G82, you guys make me change my mind like 10 times a day for the color
I know! All these dark G80/82's I see look menacing. I love the carbon black on my X7 but hadn't considered something darker on a future G80.

Looks like the 18/19 summer wheels to me (first pics of them I think).
Summer tires, Continental brand if I read well the sw marking. So Michelin & Pirelli for the 19/20 and Michelin? & Continental for the 18/19.

Not sure. I was quoted 1 hour of labor. Didn't even think to ask about warranty coverage. Admittedly, I was in a hurry that day and just needed to drop off the vehicle to get back home. I'm guessing it wouldn't have been covered anyhow since it was technically damage caused by running it through a car wash. If it was my personal car, it would have never gone through any kind of automated car wash, but since it was my wife's car and she beats them up anyway, we got lazy and ran it through the auto wash. Oh well.
