All of the above. I have an allocation, but BMW won't accept a color change, so my dealer says he should get new allocations and I'm top of the list. But, if I found something on the ground or in transit….

That's awesome, I don't blame ya! I'm not usually a red guy but this one seems to work VERY well on the G80

snareman · 09-27-2021, 10:52 AM

Vic55 Where did you find the person that offered you that for your G80?

Ah, I'm having a slight thought of doing such a thing. What do you think of the G80 compared to your M8?

They are worlds apart--- not all are better for the G80 and vice a versa

weight
length
width
steering
feel
chassis
sound
launch
top speed
handling

The M8 is so much more a GT car and is very very fast and quick but its big and fat. Its not as fun to drive but more luxurious of course. I wrote some blurbs about my thoughts earlier and that I choose the G80 more than half the time. Its not as fast from a launch or has the top speed but its a more connected drive on the streets, turns, and overall engagement. It also doesnt sound as good as the S63tu but we all know this.
