I understand preference, but is it a deal breaker? For me, non 6mt is a deal breaker. i only got my CS because i couldnt find a new 6MT in the country and i was 30k miles over on my lease.

Interior option is a deal breaker for me. If not as off the shelf option, perhaps as an Individual build...

That's one thing I like about Tesla is the option for no animal skin in the interior and their synthetic stuff is good enough for me.

I think leather looks and smells nice but if BMW offered an alternative (synthetic w/ speed cloth) I'd opt for that... YMMV.

Synthetic with speed cloth would be fantastic. I think if they offered a non-leather option in the M-Line as a priced up option I think BMW would be surprised how many takers there would be.

I would love something similar to Porsche's sport-tex. My Boxster had the same interior as the photo below, and it was super comfortable and a lot more breathable, and above all else, the "cloth" material allowed for a cool seat design and color combination that looks pretty awesome.

Porsche jumped aboard with the Taycan...

This does look fantastic... I was looking at 992's and they did not have the options like the Taycan... I'm curious if BMW in the M4 or Porsche in the 992 will allow a synthetic interior by special order... curious.

The 992 does have Sport-Tex seats but sadly only in Black and Black w/ White Contrast Stitching, not nearly as good looking as the 718's or 991's Sport-Tex options. Although I imagine Porsche may add some as the 992 ages. I assume the Taycan is completely vegan though, as Sport-Tex does have some leather.

Mercedes on the other hand makes you feel like you're in a spaceship while looking mean and elegant. To each their own.
So which one do you drive? Why would you buy the F8xx if you think it's ugly? Did you just buy for the performance?

You buy an Alfa for looks and its moody reliability.

It's worthless because it doesn't match any of the leaks....

Looks fantastic but has issues as others have mentioned vs. leaks (particularly the rear). This is just a revised version of the 4 concept. I think the front is quite close
