In regards to the "you act like..." there's been a lot of downgrades in how communicative the F series cars are vs earlier BMW but one thing they have improved on ( 5,6,7 X-series ) is the interior ambience. The pictures in this thread are just showing a very plain sea of greys and plastic looking trim.

Here's an example from the M6 with black interior and CF trim which is IMO way more appealing. Hopefully it's just the general over exposure of the M3 pix that causes everything to wash out and the leather is actually black and CF + Alcantara trim will be available.

Don't base your judgements on what you see in these spy shots. I'm sure that the production model will have various leather colors (as well as cloth, probably), several trim options from the factory, as well as trim options from the dealer -- just like the E9XM had. Likewise, just like the E9XM, we'll likely see updated trim and stitching options well into the F8X's lifecycle in the form of special edition models.
