Of course, it's an entirely different vehicle from the M1 in every way... doesn't change the fact that it's the first dedicated M vehicle since the M1 though.

Interesting. I have a car on order and it will probably be built in the July timeframe. I wonder if it will come with the anniversary emblems.

BMW has not rolled out any G80 allocations for july. Looks like your dealer doesnt have an allocation and is anticipating to get one in the future with july build date.

I have a production number. Status 112. I haven't seen a vin or build week.

What do you think about the anniversary badge possibility?

Does the order summary sheet from your CA has 3MQ option. If so, your build has it.

Vehicles build from march 2022 (end date not clearly defined and its suppose to be for a year) will have this feature as standard unless your CA opted out for the regular emblems.

I really like it!

However, IMO… Overriding the matching blue calipers for red is a big fail for this car. 🤦🏻*♂️

Maybe in minority here but I really don't get this "concrete" color...

I would also put blue calipers on it with that blue interior...

Hey, there is 3MQ on my build sheet! Thanks for pointing that out. I hadn't noticed.

I love those wheels and that color seems like the closest thing to silver?

+1

I plan on ordering the 825s. Love the pop of the silver on the wheels. Reminds me of the e46 comp wheels.

So yes, in my real life experience, seeing Brooklyn Grays in real life I always in my head thought they were close to Nardo but parked side by side with my actual Nardo F80 the BG had a very strong sky blue tone
