NJ Spotted Thread

I'm a little surprised there isn't a NJ spotted thread yet, so I'll start.

Spotted yesterday - Gray G80 pulling out of Connell Corporate Center in Berkeley Heights. I just caught a glimpse as I was passing by. The car seemed a little darker than Dravit - perhaps an individual color? Nice looking car! Anyone on here?

Haven't seen any around me and I doubt anyone here has seen mine given I've only driven 400 miles in 2 months

I think the one I saw on Saturday was the first time I saw one in the wild except for BMW CCA and other BMW events. They're still pretty rare.

Besides myself, I've only seen 3 G8xs in the wild. SPY M4, Davit Gray M3, and Frozen Gray. As mentioned they seem to be pretty rare still.

I'm in Union County (Westfield). I picked my car up at the Performance Center Christmas week and drove it home. Tomorrow a set of all seasons on new rims is scheduled to arrive from Tire Rack, and Friday morning it's going in for the 1200 mile service. It's gonna be a fun weekend!

There's a ton of them up here I would catch on my commute before winter hit. I'm sure spring time and all these deliveries landing will turn a lot more up.

Were you in Berkeley Heights over the weekend? The car I saw looked a lot like that, but Dravit usually looks lighter to me.

Finally spotted one in the wild! Who was in the beige M4 with limo tint that I was behind jumping onto 287S from Rt-23? We started to rip, I was focusing on staying below 5500 rpm as I have not completed break in yet. Before I knew it we were doing 120 mph... I eased off and he walked away like I was standing still LOL. M4 exhaust sounded a lot better than stock. These cars are insane quick, feels quicker than the modded, custom tuned v8 e92s that we race.

Spotted a G80 today in freehold (rt9 north to pond road). Not sure if the color was Dravit but it had a lot of gold specs in the sun- very unique color.

Spotted a gray M4 coming out of Ashwood Ave. in Summit yesterday afternoon. I honked as I drove by on Baltusrol Rd. heading toward Summit. Not sure which gray - might have been Brooklyn but looked darker. Individual color?
