SS/BLK interior with the darkened taillights on an Azurite Black ZCP is the way I'd go if I could do it again. That said I'll be content with what I've got until the 2021 ZCP with Mx drive and 500+ HP comes out. Until then:

Don’t you mean edited photos?
For example, look at the picture from the back of the M4. That’s NOT what the muffler looks like in real life. Not as bad as the M2C, but the F80/82 have udders of their own...which isn’t readily apparent from this picture.

I like smoked taillights.
Might have to update the m4 next...

Well, for one thing, people who want to track will more typically buy a coupe or sedan than a convertible. So the convertible doesn't need less comfortable seats for the sake of tighter support or less weight.

I can't imagine they would make seat type an option in convertibles. Retrofit is an option for the motivated, I guess.

1 vote for " anything goes " under the umbrella of " individual " when ordering of customized cars / programs from the mother ship.
Respectfully, with regards to any 'verts' - I believe they must have extra roll over protection inside of the seats ... (a different seat altogether in a sense...) vs a roofed car. The inherent inverted strength differences between the two chassis must differ being with roof / no roof. Head and Rollover safety concerns etc. I don't own a vert but that is my belief of them. Yes as we've all seen time and time again...Retro DIY can do almost anything if done well. 🤙🏼

of course they are heavily photoshopped but you have to admit whoever is doing them def makes a statement each time.

Here's a photo I found on Google. You can see the difference and the reasons why they have their own unique seat:

And rigidity in a convertible is generally to prevent "cowl shake" because there is no roof to strengthen the area from side to side. It would be like the difference between an open box and a box with a lid. This generally results in a strengthened A pillar and windshield surround which benefits both the rigidity of the body and in case of a rollover.

The integrated seatbelt in the convertible seats means they can’t use the same seat as the coupe and sedan. If they had to design a unique seat just for the M4 convertible, it would blow up the costs. So it borrows the 4 Series seat instead.
