G82: Stock M4 Competition X-Drive on street MPS4S
F82: 634hp running E82 on track tires (Advan A052) and aero. Best Lap Times: G82 DK: 1:03.933 Nob:1:01.561 F82: DK: 1:00.440 Nob: 00:59.735 Here's what I read from the auto-translate: DK Impression: G82: Heavy No translation for most of his impression. F82: Heavy but you don't feel the weight Seems to like it more. Nob's impression: G82: Each shift is strong Front tires are grounding thin (?) Doesn't turn in well. No joy in running Drifted around for a lap, so good at drifting? F82: Comfortable, calm. Legs are easy to read? (good feedback?) Final scores: G82 DK 90 Nob 85 F82 DK 100 Nob 98 Interesting, I wish they did a stock for stock comparison, especially with the same tires. MPS4S, while good, are significantly inferior to A052 on the track, especially for time attacks like this. If you took a stock M4 in either generation and used 200tw tires like the A052, you would expect the 2-3 seconds faster laps that they recorded. Aero is helping the F82 immensely, as well as all the suspension and mods. What this is telling us is that a modded F82 can be faster than a stock G82. What about a modded G82? I'm pretty sure the turn in on the G82 is sharper and more precise than a stock F82 simply due to the updated suspension and stiffer chassis. The added weight being the equalizer. On track, I personally find this to be true. I'm not a professional race car driver like these guys appear to be, but here is my impression of my F80 and G82 on two of the same tracks with similar conditions: F80 M3 CS vs G82 M4 Competition X-Drive: My Impressions As far as looks, which seems to be the focus in this thread. The F82 is unanimously more loved. The G82 is not. My opinion is that I like how the F80 looks more than the F82 and I like the G82 with a wing more than a G80, F82 and F80. That is also largely because I've already owned two F80's and the G82 is new and exciting. It's polarizing, it doesn't align with the majority opinion, and maybe that's why I like it.

I guessed that from their driving alone, but I’m not aware of them so I didn’t want to pretend to.

This is a weird comparison. The F82 has wheels, a massive wing, and it sounds like it has downpipes and I would assume a tune.
I would’ve enjoyed it more if it were stock to stock, but a great video nonetheless.

I don’t understand what this means lol. There are other cars in BMWs lineup that don’t have this grill like the M340i, M2, M5, M8.

M2 might be too small/impractical , M8 too impractical in coupe form and too expensive in grand coupe etc for people. |

[QUOTE=mirob;30287848]This is what I imagine the F8X boards look like every time a G8X story hits the front page. HATE HATE HATE.
However, not all F8x owners are hateful of G8x machines and I’d venture to say that their actually relieved and happy with their purchase… the G8x series could have been an awesome evolution of the F8x series which, notwithstanding the appearance and automatic transmission, it is! The Americans do it best, every generation of product is better looking than the last, the German’s have bucked that trend a couple of times in the last few decades with a brilliant reversal of that strategy, ie, allow little 12 year old Tomas to pen the overall strategy. Hmmmm That does sound negative or hateful but I concede that there are no objective measures of beauty, save all, or most, of the worlds automove journalists who disapprove of the G8x series’s appearance and the use of an automatic transmission, but what do they know, losers!! |

Pleasing MOST people is usually what should be the aim. People are buying a product, not following antics of a celebrity. G80/82 wasn’t the massive success some of this forum members want it to be when it came out. After first month I could get one with any of my local dealers at MSRP. Try getting a 911 at MSRP even now, let alone 2021. Even the lowly cars like Audi S4 were going on mark ups back then Also for reference 911 and M3/4 were both selling little below MSRP before COVID. |

I'm more pissed than mad. I need to love the looks of a car's exterior before I can buy. And there's no getting around the ugliness of that front end for me.
I'm also jealous of people that like or even tolerate it. If I had those same eyes I'd buy one.

As far as M3/M4 going for below MSRP before Covid. Yeah, maybe the F82, F80 was out of production by then. Dude, who cares about Porsche? What does Porsche have to do with anything? I shouldn't have to explain how that's irrelevant here. Audi? Please stop. Dealers were marking up Tellurides well before covid. That doesn't mean shit. |

Yeah, it was love at first sight for me. I also loved the F8X. My best friend hates the looks of both. Hate is a strong word...dislikes both. Everyone is different.
