Things that stood out;
Different headlights or bumper design around the headlights than the 240.
The headlight DRLs change color from white to yellow when turning on the hazards/turn signal.
Front fenders look wider than the 240s (awesome).
The brakes are still tiny, was hoping there is a BBK available like the F87.

Was trying to remember whether or not the M240 is the same. If not, then that's a good sign the headlight design is drastically different.

The G42 has yellow turn signals up front.

If they fix the ugly rear and the front a little on the LCI I'd definitely be a buyer with a manual. That S58 is going to be a tuners dream and the G8X is too ugly. Not even an S58 can put me in one of those things

Okay that's definitely different than G87. That's great news.

It can be done. I have a car seat (front facing) and booster seat in the back of my F87. The front facing car seat is a bit of a pain but in a few months both my kids will be in boosters so it will be easy.. Rear facing is a different story. I could do one rear facing car seat on the passenger side but the front passenger seat had to be all the way forward. I assume the G87 will be a little larger inside too.

That being said I would be in a G80 6MT in my situation if I could afford it right now. 4 doors does make it a lot easier with kids.

What is going to be the difference between the G87 and G87 Comp?

The g42 has the exact same thing as the new m2, the DRL’s change to yellow. The color that you are referring too is the lower headlights body color that is I believe Cerium (spelling) Gray. It changes the mirror, lower fender air inlets and the color on the bottom of the headlights. I can take a picture after work if you want to see what I’m talking about.

Same headlights, they just have a vent under the inner portion.

Some recent renders have the vents.

Anyone know if that is the RWD M240i we're seeing behind the G87 mule?
Seems to have the regular dash... not the tablets the G87 has...

I have a feeling this will sell like hotcakes and outsell the G82 M4.

I'd guess is that it is. No other reason to have camo on an M240.

I'm liking what I see, really hoping the taillights are different than the 240. That's the only issue I'm seeing.

The cow udder appears to be better hidden too. Doesn't look too visible unless you are laying on the floor.

Can't wait to see the finished product.
