Ahhh my bad. I was almost thinking they realized the error of the all screen ways. To bad.

Agreed… I had a Enterprise 2020 Q8 last May for ten days. I could not stand not having physical HVAC buttons/knobs.

Looks like the official driving embargo is over on 11/16 at 6pm.

I mean wont some cars already be delivered by then.

This is a very good look at the car from the guys at evolve. I don’t like the fact he has nothing bad to say about the car at all. Like he is afraid to piss off BMW.

Man that interior is a MAJOR step up from the F87. WHY can’t these gauges be an option on the the G87. He seems to think the seats are a direct pull form the base M3.

M is really trying to close the gap with M performance and M. Seems like body work, engine and some suspension parts are the only real difference now.

I believe the launch date is either the 16th or the 18th. I am leaning towards the 18th. I was told in September, but I do not recall.

Melbourne Red in the flesh.

The front definitely looks better when you don't specify the non black vent trim. Like in the attachments. Looks way less busy.

Here are a couple of screen grabs from the evolve YouTube I thought looked good.

The fake exhaust tips are just stupid. So if you buy an M performance exhaust you have to get a new diffuser?

I have a sneaky suspicion that it will be the most popular color for the M240.

G42 Embargo expires on 11/16.

I really doubt it. I really hope you're right.
