1 quick question...
does the driver seat have the leg extender? The E92 extends under the thighs for more support for the tall guys. It doesn't seem like the new seats offer it. Thanks, and congrats on the new ride.

I considered it and decided no as well. It does look good. Probably my next choice after the SS I ended up with. Just a little dark for me, which means road spray etc. shows up easily.

Ahh, maybe from my friend and former CA Ty who dumped me to move to Scottsdale?

I personally love how the car looks in Mineral Gray... Funny I told myself I wouldn't have another gray car...

OP the car looks very classy in this color. You can't go wrong with classy.
AW is most sport-like and black is always cool. The blue's clues blue, metallic bile fluid, burnt shrimp orange or whatever frozen color may be cool with many, but they don't have a lot of class. A 70k plus car should at least look expensive, and MG does. Congratulations on a sharp looking car. Any new pics will be welcome. |

Thanks for sharing the pix! The led lighting is interesting and the video with the dash features is really cool. Looking forward to reading the full writeup.
I wonder though, why make the key fob any larger? I like the size it is now; fits just right in the pocket. Seems like the trim on the new one is simply for aesthetics and really doesn't need to be there which would reduce the size. Would be nice to know why...

My local dealer got one for display. The exhaust sound was all rattle noise and i am not impress with the sound at all and it's not even close to Ferrari sound. Only thing I liked is the interior

I wonder how the shift knob feels. I'm not happy they opted for the plastic ball over the leather wrapped knob. Not only does it look cheap it will suck to clean. The new gear shifters feel very flimsy, but not sure of the M shifter. I really love the feel of the M3 shifter.
I did see a M4 review on youtube by some European guy and they showed a clip of the M4 from a distance driving through canyon. The exhaust actually sounded very unique and cool. I wouldn't think Ferrari but Porsche like. I can't find that review now, everyone has their reviews out.

I'm mad I got sunroof in my E92 now because my damn head don't fit. I hit the cieling on bumps. With a helmet I'll have to lean the seat back gansta style.
