Same. I wont be a hybrid buyer, wait for all electric or other technology. The synthetic fuel Porsche is pioneering is pretty interesting - don't want to assume prematurely that the performance market will be 100% electric though.

honestly am waiting to see what formula 1 comes up with for 2030 and possibly 2026 with the renewable fuel they want to use. i thnik thats where the high performance and super cars are going to go, and like always it will filter down to the lux brands then the everyday cars

I had a 100% electric car before and romance was over before the end of the first year for me, I also don't see myself buying a performance hybrid and I don't think its a phase not even if I had the money to buy a supercar with a hybrid powertrain, I am too much of a purist .

if that's true... you may already be in the wrong car, I dunno if a G82 at 3600 lbs qualifies as that

Planning on ordering a 2024 BMW M4 Competition Xdrive, but all I need to decide on is the exterior paint color. My top two choices are Brooklyn Grey, and Individual Atlantis Blue. Brooklyn grey looks really good, as it is an aggressive color on an extremely aggressive looking car. I just haven’t seen many pictures of Atlantis blue on the G8X. Any opinions and information would be appreciated.

Thanks for the help Cane. I’m new to Bimmerpost, just signed up today, so I really don’t know how to navigate everything.

Atlantis is beautiful - and is obviously a rarer color. Dropping the coin for individual paint is just not my deal.

If you go Atlantis, what's your interior color???
