I think the darkened tails look great as well. I have Schmiedmann black taillight lenses on my 1 M and vastly prefer the look to the stock lenses.

I even know of a brand new G42 you can practice on with the owners permission for the next few days.

I wish I could be excited for it but ID8 is so disappointing to me, and I'm not too much a fan of the styling either.

They need to show it already before they over hype and under deliver like the Supra

This seems to be accurate and tracks with some information I received for an upcoming event to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the M Brand. I will get some more details this week but I am eager to see this car in person.

Good call. My last 3 bmws have been pre-lci but not doing that anymore. Getting tired of retrofitting lots of expensive items and having a never ending list of coding projects. LCI from here on out.

I think ideally if they do force the base seats on us, they give us an option for the G8x seats at a cost (say $600 or so) and the carbon buckets.

You'll only need to wait 2yrs for the LCI to arrive, April 2025.

Correct, I will be there with the BMW CCA M Chapter and working with them to make it a weekend event.

Forum member Tag has almost certainly a full VIN of one or more G87 M2 test mule(s).

If you run a valid VIN of a G87 M2 through a non-defunct VIN Decoder, blurred configuration renders of the exterior and interior of the car pop up + specs of that particular car. Once the model got official, the configuration renders are no longer blurred.

In the past, VIN specs of dozens of pre-production F87 M2 and F87 M2 Competition cars were already leaked over here at Bimmerpost.
