I love my G80 but I am interested in this car... I'm with you, I would consider doing IOMG over KO (have it now and absolutely love this interior) but I might go individual if they approve my color.

You are not going to since the vehicle is not in production. G87 SOP (start of production) is currently scheduled for December 2022. Use the M3 or M4 to look at the colors available. I suspect it will be nearly the same for the G87.

I saw it on IG as well. It appears that the horrible G42 tail lights will not be changing for the G87.

Makes me think that going a darker color may be the route to go.

Probably so. I no longer purchase dark colored cars as they are a royal PITA to keep clean and swirl free.

Amen to that. I have a black S5 now and told myself never again. Hopefully we get a nice exclusive darker color...maybe even dravit to pair with silverstone.

I have owned a few black autos, never again. I am looking at individual blues and reds (metallic and non-metallic) for my priory one G87.

My best buddy once told me, decades ago, "everyone owns ONE black car in their lifetime". Shortly afterwards I bought one. Whoops. Vowed to never do it again. 15 years later, I bought another. F*CK!!! What was I thinking??

My Hock Silver M2c was just detailed. Man does that color clean up nicely. And even when dirty, at 10 feet away, it still looks clean. No more high maintenance colors for me.

I think black is good every 10-15 years when you forget about how awful it is to own one.

Yep, that seems about right and then it only takes 3-6 months to recall just how badly black is a royal PITA.

Maybe they use the 50th birthday of BMW M that would be the 24th of May to present it. Definetly not earlier. But most likely it will be July or August in my eyes.

I am guessing mid June to mid July for the debut. Edit Ordering Guides out in August/September.

I just realized since we've been discussing individual paint, will it even be offered considering the car is being built in Mexico? Individual paint is only currently in Germany and South Carolina.

San Luis Potosí Plant in Mexico has the capabilities for Individual paint. Their paint shop is the latest and greatest within the BMW’s manufacturing. The factory also uses more robotics than any of their other factories.
