Agreed, but it will be the wife’s car and she really liked the S5 because it has similar dimensions to her current 428 GC. I really want her to get the M5 for selfish reasons. A M5, GT350 and F150 would be a sweet lineup. But she is not a fan of large sedans like that (or S6s). We’ll see in a year or so.

Understood. I had a '15 S5 for about a year. Nice enough car and would be a perfect AWD replacement for the 428 GC. Although, I like the body style of my former S5 better than the 18s.

The latest rumors is the only limitation will be production cycle of the current 2 series/M2 in general. There is speculation that the N55 engine is going away completely and that all future M2s will have detuned S55s. Something about emissions - I can't recall exactly.

Trying to find my daily after selling my 3er. Wanted to stay with BMW but due to BMW's current bad leasing numbers, been slowly inching towards the base Giulia for the short term.

We'll see how it goes.

Get a Toyota or Lexus or something. Normal BMWs suck IMO.

Interesting. Any idea on price? I think my "wife" may need one

I just bought an 18 S5 sportback. I dig it. Completely different animal though.

All guesses, most are predicting $5-$10K premium, and that this will be the only M2 sold for MY 2019+ (the jury is still out if a CSL will be produced in limited quantities as well).

oduli81 · 02-08-2018, 09:53 PM

If the new Supra delivers the goods, otherwise GTR..

TTR · 02-18-2018, 10:05 PM

Lambo Performante or 720s

Can't decide yeat, mac is faster, lambo is pretty (Keep both is stock)

Also thinking about new Supra and tune

jmg · 02-19-2018, 12:47 AM

I've been considering an i8. Any F80 owners have an i8 want to weigh in?

shay2nak · 02-19-2018, 02:47 AM

Dark grey Civic Type R to replace my DD

KingBurt323 · 02-22-2018, 01:44 AM

no particular order but these are the candidates

Ferrari California
Audi R8
Porsche GT3
Nissan GTR
M6
i8
Merc. AMG GT
Z06

CosmosMpower · 11-30-2018, 04:06 PM

For you 2015/2016 non ZCP M3 guys, now the cars are 3-4 years old and getting to EOP. The G80 is still a year or two away.

Besides the Alfa Quadrifoglio are there any good replacements for the F80 these days? Test drove a Model 3 Performance, the acceleration is great but interior materials are meh and can't swallow 75k for that car.

Thinking about just getting a cheap VW Golf GTI to hold me over until the next gen.

NYBulldog · 11-30-2018, 04:17 PM

If you definitely want a G80 and looking for something to "hold you over" then get into an E90 M3 for 1 year, screw the GTI. The Alfa is amazing, just has some quirks including the infotainment. I wouldn't switch to it unless you love it.

Already had a E90 M3 (right before my F80), meh. I'm more worried about Alfa reliability and crappy service/dealer network.

Remington · 11-30-2018, 04:36 PM

I lease my cars so this may not apply to your situation.

My 2016 non-ZCP M4 was due to be turned in January 2019.

I'd decided to lease a 2019 ZCP M4 and then get a 2022 G80 (or M4 version, G82?). However, my dealer had a pretty much optioned out 2018 M3 ZCP in its showroom for about a year and made me a good deal. Got that instead.

Pretty happy and think it will serve me well until the next generation.

psuibmw · 11-30-2018, 06:21 PM

Keep the M3 until the G80

jmg · 11-30-2018, 06:34 PM

I'm probably going to lease an M4 or look for a Cayman S.

RickFLM4 · 11-30-2018, 06:37 PM

F83 - you’ll enjoy it.

nicknaz · 11-30-2018, 10:22 PM

911 turbo. It's "everyday super car" reputation is well deserved

dkhm3 · 11-30-2018, 11:30 PM

I’m keeping the 15 m3 as long as I can. I love it too much.

I am replacing the X5M however, (never really connected with it) I ordered a 911 s, last of the 991.2s, final allocations for delivery in a few months.
