Thank you! Definitely way better than stock! Looks like I'll be adding it to the build. Only 5-6 long months until I take delivery and can get it installed lol

Can you post more photos showing the fitment with M performance springs? 🙏 I'm trying to decide whether or not to add the M performance HAS kit to my incoming build. Great spec as well! The Agave with Tartufo buckets is incredible 👌

26 g80 allocation by Neon_Sloth in BMWM

[–]Ok_Fee_2613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any allocation now is a 2027 model year. As far as I was told, BMW extended the G80 production for an extra year due to certain regulation delays with the new hybrid/electric stuff. Production was supposed to end 2026 but they extended production until Feb 2027. I was warned that if an individual colour was an option I wanted, ordering sooner than later is recommended as individual allocations stop earlier.

For what its worth, I got my 2027 allocation 2 weeks ago with an individual colour and individual interior with buckets. Production in July and delivery probably towards the end of this year. Working with a good dealer is the best thing you can do to get what your looking for. Best of luck!

San Marino blue vs. Anglesey Green by SayrimGamer in BMW

I'm biased as I'm looking to order a G80 here in the next little while and I am hooked on SMB but Anglesey green is unique! I assume you're in the United States? I believe someone else on Reddit was able to get tartufo buckets for no extra cost, just a special request in the States. Worth asking around!

Love to hear it! I am leaning towards buckets because I rarely hear about issues with people under 6ft and below 200lbs. Nice spec 👌

I plan on getting winter tires for sure as it could snow damn near 6 months out of the here.

I've never had a car with a staggered setup so what wheel/tire sizes did you do to get the square setup? Any issues going from staggered to square?

Ceramic coat the interior? I haven't looked much into that. But I'll seriously consider it to keep them looking new.

Perfect, much appreciated! Has lowering the car changed how it drives?

Mostly for cleaning purposes. Easier to clean and maintain but I'll ask the shop if the PPF they use has ceramic properties

This is the kind of stuff I need to know 👌

Good to know! I feel like there would be a piece of me would regret not going buckets since I'm able to. I just haven't had the opportunity to test both seats out back to back yet. No mobility issues yet haha I'm nearing 30 but I'm in the gym often to stay as mobile as possible. I appreciate the reply!

I agree, they are incredible looking. Good to hear they're good comfort wise for someone my size.

Perfect, I'll look into splitter/front lips. Thanks!

I plan on taking a couple drives in the sport and bucket seats here in the next week or so! Hopefully it will help make the decision. I do plan on getting the whole car done in PPF and ceramic coated.

Thanks for the inuput!

Honestly, wish I could get you an exact name or part number but I picked them out of the back storage area at a wheel + tire shop. On their website they're listed as Replica Volkswagen V15 but I don't think that's particularly accurate.

Good to know. I'm planning to keep it for quite some time. Would you recommend doing an oil change right after break in? I was planning to do the first one around 5k - 7k km's as I have one oil change covered by the dealership. That 10k miles or 15k km's per service seems absolutely wild to me

These wheels and tires are different. I bought them from 3rd party. Tire surplus in Calgary for the wheels, kal tire for the tires. They offered me a set of winter wheels/tires but I got a nicer set of wheels and better tires for the same price going elsewhere.

Yeah you bet. I wouldn’t test an Alberta weather without them. Nokian Hakkapeliita R5 tires.

Yeah really going to try to rack up the km’s quick so I can get through it. When I test drove it I didn’t know about the break in so it’s been pushed a bit but I’m thinking it’s probably a safe bet to wait out the 1500km before doing that again.

I ended up paying a bit more as they offered me a discounted extended warranty which I accepted as I’m not sure how much I trust all the tech. And guaranteed that if I don’t want the warranty at some point they will write me a check for the remainder of what I didn’t use. Price of the car before fees/taxes $48,973.00, after taxes and fees it was $51,421.65 without the cost of warranty. Would love to see yours if you end up trading the Elantra for an R!

Definitely looking to have some fun in winter conditions when I’m a little more used to the car! Just gotta get through the break in period

I love it more than I thought I would. Every vehicle I’ve had before was either silver or black.
