Thanks for all the feedback guys. I love how people jump to conclusions so quickly. I was saying I was pretty impressed with the G80 overall, but never said I was making the jump one way or the other. I am always looking, but the Miami F80 is a tough spec to beat.

Unicorn is the right choice OP - keep that one a long time.
My two cents on automotive happiness - keep the Miami blue for sunny days low mileage as a garage queen and ADD the green G 80 on 4 year lease and drive the piss out of it - put 50,000 miles on it - take it everywhere rain, snow etc - best of both worlds - you'll be a happy man - it's only money.

If you can post the pics in original post and still ask which one to get then by all means take the G80 especially since you like the interior.
The front end is repulsive to me and the only thing i like about interior are the CF seats. |

One thing you may want to consider is that the current value of the F80 is highly inflated and with your unique color you can probably recover at least 80% of the cost of the new G80 out of your current car, I'd say if the G80 isn't marked up this is a good choice since you get fresh warranty and a great price for your old car....once chip shortage is over used car prices will plummet again and making the same move will cost you a lot more $$$.
regarding transmission obviously I own(ed) both cars, the ZF kick back is faster than DCT because it is not odd-even sequential. it's down shift is the same and smoother in lower gears (no jolt) but its up shifts are definitely slower than DCT under heavy load. on the track it evens out and of course G80 wins like a walk in the park with more power and better handling/balance. my 2 cents

Tbh ZF gearing ratio is better at track. A lot of my friends praises the zf8 in the new Supra at track and you can really see the shortened gear put you in a better rpm in a lot of corners

Depends on the track. A lot of people here complain too short 3rd and 4th gear, they prefer the longer gearing and faster shifting of DCT.
