Returning with my 4th F8x!!

Colinv6 · 09-16-2022, 06:40 AM

Didn’t plan on this move, but after 2 F80’s and an F82 CS I went to a beautiful e92 competition pack, which id loved and planned to keep. Until I made the mistake of popping into my local BMW dealership and saw this Stunning 2020 M4 comp in Individual Mexico blue, on Opal white with the ultimate pack. Having covered just 3900 miles I couldn’t take my eyes off it.

It was a sad day watching the e92 get collected but I’m very much looking forward to driving this tomorrow!

Terrific colour! Blues just work on BMWs.

The F82 is such a wonderful shape, has me thinking about stepping up to a CS in a SMB.

Could you imagine all the money you had for mods if you had just kept the original F8x you had!

I'm a big offender of this problem as well. I've had 3 RS4s, 2 E63s, 2 Evos, and I'm looking for my second F8x now... I think to myself - WTF is wrong with me? If I had just kept the original of each, I would have either so much more money, or I could have more cars in the stable at home... either way would be a win. I need to learn patience.

Haha!! Indeed, it’s like an illness, or an inability to appreciate what you have at the time. I also get bad doses of the 2 year itch. I’ve swapped my last 5 cars right on the 2 year mark. I tend to buy them, perfect them and detail the hell out of them, and sell them on. The e92 was the only car that I made money on lol.

The CS was such a special car, I had the scratch that v8 itch but here I am
Back again but not with a CS. Used ones in the UK seem to be a minefield of remapped cars and shady mods. I had the ceramic brakes on mine which I miss.

Gorgeous color. Enjoy your 4th!

JAI///M3 · 09-16-2022, 06:45 PM

Absolutely stunning color combo.

Congrats!

Jbrown7403 · 09-16-2022, 08:07 PM

Congratulations! That color is spectacular! Reminds me of Porsche Shark Blue… stunning.

Awesome color! Would love to hear your thoughts on the E92 vs F82 experience

Colinv6 · 09-18-2022, 01:31 PM

Picked it up yesterday, looks, feels and drives like a brand new car.

I’ve got it tucked up while I do some perfecting, but man does this colour attract attention out on the roads. Love it.

swagon · 09-19-2022, 01:18 PM

There seems to be a reoccurring theme of past F8x owners coming back to these cars. I wonder why.

IB M · 09-19-2022, 04:26 PM

Congrats an another beautiful car.

I'm on my 4th F80 as well - something about them.

Grats to your new beautiful ride - aside from the steering wheel is onto the wrong side

W/// · 09-21-2022, 07:52 AM

Stunning color combo. A bit surprised you got rid of the E92 since I know how much you like it, but I can see why this F82 was too good to pass up!
