Waiting for a G82 xDrive Build starting 3rd July… expected delivery is end September 😎

I would be keen but I'm waiting on my M3 Xdrive as well. Build date 3rd July. I was told delivery in October so if it's earlier that would be a wonderful bonus.

Nice. Did you end up going with the carbon seats?

No, went with the std performance seat as it is a problem for my wife getting in and out. To be honest, I drove one around for 2 days with the non carbon seats and it was great.

I spent a little bit of time in the non-carbon seats and they are quite nice. I ended up with the carbon seats as my wife will spend very little if any time in the G80 as she would usually use the SUV.

Let me be clear, my wife won't drive the car, as a passenger 😂😂😎. Getting in and out on the passenger side in a dress, is somewhat challenging with middle hump.

It will be interesting to see how my wife gets on with the carbon seats. Tbh in the 5 years I owned the f80 she may have sat in the passenger seat 10 times.

No specific drive event, just a cruise through the reserve. Went on a Porsche drive day through it. Was an awesome drive.😎

Funny enough I passed a Brooklyn Grey M3 this morning out the back of Box Hill and Nelson. So much presence on the road.
