SEMA

Spent a few hours at SEMA...not nearly enough. Captured a few BMWs that were interesting enough to share

Your first picture is proof positive that the G82 is just vastly better without the front end.

It's also more balanced, as a shape, than the G80.

Interestingly, I preferred the F80 to the F82 for the same reason.

I have warmed up to the G front end just a bit, but it's still just an incredible unbalance from the rear. Maybe one day someone will fix it properly.

Thanks for the pix.

The ute conversion was very cool. One of my favorites. I missed the Touring wagon

That ute

OGOverkill · 11-07-2023, 02:03 PM

Like the grill on the GT3

Front aero inside the F82 GT3 grille? Wonder if it's real.
