Just to be more clear on why you were banned from G80 forums, you made 1 post saying that the car is ugly and were then banned?

Yep, here you go. F82, bullet proof the crank hub, tune it, saves tens of thousands of dollars, and don't be embarrassed to be seen in it unlike the G82.

Win win win win

The comments on the F82 are very positive as well. It's just an amazing machine that I think a lot of people slept on for many years, hopefully they're waking up now.

All I said was it was ugly IMO and bmw lost me as a customer. Then I was banned from all the forums for three months. And I guess permanently from g90 because that was since November.

Just trying to figure out how long that will last. I like reading on mods and track times. But that’s not happening

Lmao. That’s worse than what I said. That’s what I’m trying to figure out. Thought it would be over by now but looks permanent.

This ban shit is crazy, literally censoring having a negative opinion about a exterior of a car

It's just show the smaller cock weak mind of BMW who can't take opinions of their owners or future owners. Sums up they don't need your money and we give you permission to spend your money elsewhere.

Honestly If bmw thinks this helps them they are delusional. If you got banned for talking about how ugly a new model is then you definitely won’t ever buy that car. The g80 has its good looks, but the stupid buck toothed grill is beyond the typical small problem that I could ignore scenario. What’s worse is that they also destroyed the front fenders by using those ugly plastic pieces where the m3 goes. The only way I’d ever move up is if I bought a used g80 with a different bumper on it. Outside of that bmw lost me as a customer for a minimum of 7 years and if this is how they act it’s lifetime and My next car will be a corvette because Chevrolet knows how to redesign a car.

as much as i'd love f8x to outrun g8x everyday, his comparison isn't too fair for the g8x. g8x's power will be more prevailing if the straight is longer. nurburgring time would probably be a big difference given the length of that straight run.

If you go to BMW NA and go to the M page they don't even show the front anymore. It's all side and back shots.

I've been very critical of the G80 front end, weight gain, and ugly design in the G80 forum, but I've yet to be banned. What on earth are you guys saying that gets the ban hammer?!

Maybe there noticing the low sales. If so that means those designers who did this on purpose and ignored what people had to say will probably be fired by years end. It’s all about profits, if it drops this year imagine the following years once the new factor wears off. They’re screwed. That front bumper has many names now, “buck toothed” “beaver” “two front teeth” “exhaust blower” “trash can” literally anything you want to say it relates to the front bumper. I hope bmw copies Chevrolet and remodels this car after just one year in 2021 otherwise bmw is dead to most of us.

BMW doesn't give a rats ass about us on this forum. We are a very small portion of people who will buy M cars. Most who do buy F8x cars and G8x cars won't ever visit an enthusiasts forum for information. The forum owners however, don't want to upset their BMW sponsor overlords though...and we are a vocal group. My guess is that's what's driving the perma bans. BMW knows they done messed up with the appearance of the G8x but they own it now and are going to go with it consequences be damned.

A black G80 drove up from behind and passed me today...I thought for a second I was looking at a new Lexus IS model until I saw a BMW badge on the trunk lid then I realized what it was. The overall G80 design has a very "Lexus" vibe to it which isn't necessarily bad. I've just never been a fan of the large grill design with the Lexus lineup so I'm naturally not a fan on the G80 either.

I got banned and I didn't even say anything offensive. It's been > 3 months and I still can't post on the G8x forums. Looks like it's permanent. Not losing any sleep over it. They lost me as a customer (my last 3 cars were BMWs). I won't be spending a $ more on any new/used BMWs. That's my "Jerk me off ! Fuck you too BWM!"

The taillights do look like they copied it from the IS lineup.

- Crank hub fix done
- VTT CBC done
- Resonated downpipes done
- Swapped to Cup 2 Connect
- Bend calibration flex fuel kit ordered
- Not letting BMW get me into a new G8X with their mass mailings… priceless

If you guys are itching for more power, I highly recommend you get on flex fuel. BM3 E30 OTS makes the car stupid fast and it's so much fun when you have proper tires and are able to lay the power down.

I got a mailer to trade in my 2019 for a 2021 with zero down and a lower monthly payment for the loan. No thanks... It's awesome to have a bmw with a HUGE amount of equity.
Probably will not last long, but I just cannot get past the design of the new one.
