Will see what an LCI might bring but ideally G87 would have me back in an M and a manual this time around. Providing the fix the F22/87 pedal offset.
Pretty much my sentiments exactly Chris.

My F80 is in for end of warranty tomorrow so I'll check out the dealers G8x while I'm there. See if I can bag a test drive but I doubt it.

I too am considering switching back to a manual for the next car and given the G8x looks may also go back to an M2.

How is the Jag?

Everyone does say it looks better in person. I can't see how I will like the general front style though and it's M5 size now I feel.

Yes the Jag is lovely. Bit of an emotional choice this time. V8 sound is awesome already and it's only done 100 miles so far. JayEms video today actually nails it I think, he's spot on.

I've just loved the look of it from release though.

I've seen the G8x twice in the flesh now. Tanzanite blue M4 suits it much better than the IOM green I saw on the M3. Really not gelling with the front at all.

But it's not just that. Weird angles and plastic jutting out all over the place. Odd design elements that do not flow.

Love the F-type, colleague has the pre facelift 5.0l R in BRG. Stunning. Congrats.

Very weird design elements. Looks like it is trying to squeeze the rear bumper out of it's backside. All odd. Not feeling it.
