I'm staying with the M standard seats, as ventilated seats is preferred living in the humid southeast, especially with a convertible. Looking forward to the M carbon bucket seats when I track the G82 in Germany with the BMW M driving programs— once the boarders open up again.

BMW should offer it's M4GTS seat as a possible option (FIA-approved, 5/6pt. harness-capable, and highly lightweight). If you want a GT car and are less concerned about driving at the track, these seats (either the sport or carbon seat from BMW) look quite nice! |

Nice touch on the removable headrest pad for the helmet clearance.

If you haven't sat in these seats i'd advise doing so before ordering. I'm 177cm and 85kg and i found them to be extremely snug at the launch the bolster adjustment was at its maximum. They were also hard to get out of in jeans due to the high sides.
For reference I currently have an M2 comp and on my G80 order I have opted for the normal M seats, they were extremely comfortable compared to the previous gen M seats in my M2C |

I've had the opportunity to sit in the CF seat and they are tight. I'm about 6'2 200lbs. lower side bolsters were my biggest issue and they are definitely going to wear like crazy (the alcantara on the lower bolsters) Unless you are tracking the car or are a smaller nimble person i don't think it would be wise to get the CF seats even for all the clout in the world. Getting in and out of them is a chore as well. side note, they look awesome.

The carbon seats are a knockout. Can't wait to order these for the e9x platform 😃

One of the best features of the G8x, you'd be crazy not to spec the cf seats.

The real question is; are the buckets heated? I would assume they are as they are power operated. I always liked the carbon buckets in the Giulia QV but they of course had limitations, like no heating and being manually operated only.

Oh damn... I was decided to get the M Sport seats mainly due to them being ventilated and for a long drive comfort. I'll have to check the M Carbon buckets but I wonder how one would fit comfortably when wearing a winter jacket.
