Uhhhhhh pretty much every purist who loves a good performance wagon? Just an opinion my guy lol

Habber · 09-28-2022, 02:30 PM

8 people want this.

Of the 8 people, 7 want to change something about it.

omaralt · 09-28-2022, 02:45 PM

guys lets be serious; like 5 people would get this...

its not like its much more practical than the M3. The rear seats are the same (i think?). The trunk in the m3 is plenty big and the wagon looks worse than the sedan.

I just don't see spending 140+k euros on this. I really like the car, but can't justify the cost.

And 3 of the 7 would eventually buy. 4 of the 7 would get a SAV and never turn back.

ChiTownM · 09-28-2022, 03:38 PM

Had and have SAVs from BMW. Would i get this - absolutely yes. I think it has a cool factor that goes way beyond the M SAVs, been there and done that.

But I am not losing sleep over it, I'll buy something else, maybe another brand.

I don't want the g80/82 because of the grill and weird screen. I'd look past both for the wagon version if it was similarly priced in the US ignoring ADMs.

moff · 09-28-2022, 04:25 PM

It's a great car but in the UK at least the lack of pano roof and the grills still put me off.

I'd rather have a B3S Touring with nice grills and a pano roof.

Not sure you can get the Alpina in SPY so San Remo Green would do.

spuntyb · 09-28-2022, 05:20 PM

Hey at least we'll be getting the M5 wagon! Can't believe that sentence is real…

For some, the wagon looks better. It's not just practicality. I see M3/M4s, C63s, etc. every day. Great cars. They look nice, but are relatively common. I see an E63 wagon, RS6 Avant, etc. roll by, and you have my attention.

M4_ZMT · 09-28-2022, 10:58 PM

Angered.

Say what you will about the looks of the G81, but you can't deny the coolness of a sports wagon.

Not sure of other potential buyer's opinion, but I'm only getting new cars w/ a manual or I'm buying an older car. And if I want an SUV or an auto, or something for utility to get from point A to point B, I'd just get a Mazda.

Minus a few garbage dealers, mostly in the NE, at least BMW doesn't act like a pretentious automobile company (I'm looking at you Porsche).

Sounds like you haven't don't much shopping in the South West…

Brandt51 · 09-29-2022, 12:54 PM

I don't mind the kidneys. And I love weird and/or sport wagons, but…since it's the internet, I have to say I most def…100% would buy this if it came to the USA. But only with an MT
