While a Porsche is always a Porsche and holds value and is faster.

Dunno for the money there are better cars out there.
We really need a Down Vote button on this forum.
To silence others?

People should be able to give praise and negative options.

Seeing others people different point of view about chassis, design, support and 3rd party products js what this forum is literally about lol

Yes through the dealer. The giant benefit of port installed options is it's done by professionals and the labor is free. Also, the cost is added to the MSRP, window sticker, which is huge if you are leasing and can be helpful for resale.
Can I add this at any time or it has to be before production starts?
I don't know exactly what the current process is but In the past you were able to add before it hit the VPC. Some salespeople aren't very knowledgeable so you may have to work a bit. The dealer adds it to the build and it creates a work order at the VPC. Of course if the parts are on back order it may sit there a bit. Nothing is easy right now.
What is "VPC"? Thanks…

I believe the owner will be doing PPF of some sort. I will update the forum when I hear more.

This color looks so good in person!

Love all the carbon fiber, but feel like it's a BMW miss to leave the gloss black above the rear diffuser, especially when you have all carbon fiber options in the rear. Diffuser and winglets.

I am always surprised why someone who dislikes the G8X whether it’s looks, performance etc….still troll the G8X Forum. Also, my M4 came with non-lasers but essentially everything else (except carbon) and honestly maybe I wouldn’t have spec’d it that way but the more pictures I see the more I like the non-lasers. They seem darker, no blue plastic or yellow sticker is a big plus in my book.

PS that dude spec’d a bad ass car just as is!

Is this matt paint hard to live with given you can't repair scratches?

I have PPF on my FDG. I recommend it. Maintenance is low, but frozen colors are a dust magnet, and it shows. I'm constantly cleaning the dust!

How did your PPF come out? Did you go with XPEL Stealth?

I have the stealth wrap . I have the bonnet , front bumper , front fenders , carbon roof and the side skirts . Unfortunately i couldn't wait for full wrap because i needed the car to go somewhere . So far everything is great , no difference at all between the colour (between the door and the fender) . I will take some pictures with the details .

It looks great, I have the same color currently sitting in status 150. I'm glad to hear that there's no difference, I plan on doing a full wrap
