Hey guys and gals! Here are the photos I took. I'm not a real photo guy so I just did the best that I could. Feel free to ask any questions you have about the car. Cheers!

Nice pictures! I'm really digging the flared fenders and rocker panels.

It amuses me that the worst angles + color for the G87 is the "up close rear angle" and the "up close from above front shot" in ZB. Of course those were also the angles that leaked first lol. IMO from pretty much any other angle it looks really good, especially in TR or BG.

Thanks! Makes me consider ZB since it is an exclusive color.

Nice! So what was your reaction to finally seeing the car in the flesh compared to pics? Better, worse or indifferent?

Also, opinion on the color?

Looks like vernasca armrest and rear seats from the gain of the leather in the pics. I don't see that changing to merino for production cars given all the cost cutting they've done with other decisions.

Definitely different. The front had Merino and the rear was Dakota.

It was okay. I would drive one but it certainly isn't worth trading up my F87 (yet). In a couple of years maybe. The blue does not do anything for me. I still think it is a pretty awful color.

I was so busy snapping photos that I forgot to ask. However, the sales guy at Bob Smith originally told me it would be there for a week. It will most likely be there through the weekend.

LOL! No worries! I will call to double check. Thanks again for the pictures.

Btw, did your impression on the car changed after seeing it in person?

Should have popped an Airtag in it for tracking.

Right. I really don't know what leathers BMW is using this day. All I can say is the front carbon buckets had soft leather and the rear had definitely harder feeling leather.

Yes and no. It's definitely better in person than in pictures. I may want to get an LCI model in a few years.
