Just went and test drove one, still not a huge fan of the blocky front. Just wondering if I’ll get over it, I’ve been saving for one and can almost justify the purchase.
My biggest takeaway from it is how exposed the front radiator is… is there a way to protect this from rocks? Seems like an expensive trip on the road if one hits it at speed.
I agree. I must be in the minority too. I never liked the F87s homogenous design or its proportions and its interior always felt like a class below what you pay for. I fell in love with the G42 when it came out so this post is probably not for me. I loved the G42s long hood, aggressive styling, wide fenders. Plus the interior was easily a class or two above the F87. It also doesn’t look like anything else on the road. The G87 only built on all those strengths. It’s a baby M4 and truly feels purpose-built and special. I’ve taken her to a few cars and coffees now and people swoon over it. I respect the F87 for what it is and why people like them. But I’m glad it’s all grown up now.
