Black G80 M3 Competition with M Performance Parts is best looking yet

BLACK OPS · 09-25-2020, 08:31 PM

My e92 is afraid to lose me. Jealousy stirs fear of abandonment. I might need counseling after this post.

G80indy · 09-25-2020, 08:33 PM

Sharp !!

elitex · 09-25-2020, 09:06 PM

I am really starting to dig this car. I am sure the straight line and track performance is going to surprise a lot of people.

I'm loving the new green as well. It does look good in all black, the wing may be a bit much for me though.

Grill all but disappears when the car is all black. Nice. Very nice.

DL335D · 09-25-2020, 10:04 PM

Best color by a long shot for the G80. Not even close.

The rear end and exhaust look like a Lexus from 2007 which M fans have panned for years. Even in black the front is a mess.

Its unfortunate latest and “greatest” makes things fantastic now days. BMW fans will just adapt to whatever ugly crap they put out.

I am also deeply disappointed with the released performance metrics so that adds to my dilemma. Without serious gains, is the radical departure from traditional ///M, at this price point, even worth it?

Anyone else feeling similarly?

In a similar boat- can by my 18 m3 zcp who 8k miles for 45k in a few months or get into one of these things for 100k. I say no, it’s not worth it especially if it has to grow on you unless you need to have the newest thing. Smart play is to wait until LCI or a few years until the leases are heavily incentivized - these cars going to be super expensive at launch and I just don’t see a reason to pay that kind of money for this car.. not initially

There’s nothing special about it

paulso · 09-25-2020, 10:55 PM

forget the color, why couldn't they pick a different license plate? M ED is just evil.

Bahn360Photo · 09-25-2020, 11:43 PM

This exhaust is not my cup of tea to say the least

Don_MPoor · 09-25-2020, 11:50 PM

Rear view looks like Lexus or Honda, front view looks so much like R/T charger with big beaver tooth and a JDM type R exhaust. I am really trying to picture myself with this car several times, but I cannot.

The car dealership where I got my M4 keeps calling me and giving me a sweet deal that is hard to refuse, still...I don't see myself driving this car.

So sad it seems M3/M4 lost its identity. It's no longer elegant and German.

Fedorov · 09-26-2020, 01:54 AM

I still don't like this car (yet) though the vertical slats look much better than the Infinity look of the non M variants.

While black is always nice I think it could possibly pull of a darkish antrhracite grey also or similar dark grey, deep colors.

HAHA you're so right.
This is their logic. Them: You people are so annoying with your dislikes.
We got bored and stop. Them: Looks like everyone likes it, you see I was right all along.
Can't make this up.

And for anyone that's been following since the beginning, we can easily tell, other than the usual committed members, most of the praises now are from members that's not been here prior.

SteveChester · 09-26-2020, 02:21 AM

Looks sick - apart from that exhaust

rodybmw · 09-26-2020, 02:55 AM

Couldn’t disagree more about the black looking good. I’ve always disliked black (and other dark colored) cars because they hide all the design elements and details. This is great for those of you who hate the G80/G82 design, but I’d rather have any other color but black. The only positive thing I can say for the black G80 is that it looks better than a black F80....but that’s about it.

DL335D · 09-26-2020, 03:10 AM

I found a pick of the G80 in pink! Not bad.

Soul_Glo · 09-26-2020, 03:10 AM

I guess in black it masks that God awful front end a lot better.
