Some good news about the
G80 M3/ G82 M4, from yesterday's update in the
future models info thread.
G80 M3 and G82 M4 Coupe currently have more variants than we're used to seeing.
First of all, it appears the
manuals are still alive. However, there are hints that these cars will be available as both
RWD and
xDrive. For the first time in years, BMW is not going to force you into a car they think is best - they'll let you choose.
On top of that, there could be two different performance trims right out of the gate - you'll get a
Competition model that's more different from the base M3/M4 than the old Competition Packages would provide.
On the other hand, G83 M4 Cabrio would have a more limited selection: a single model with the choice of transmission.
