I agree, a couple front and rear angled shots would be nice to get a view of the widths. Wheels look great.

congrats! Does the V badge on the back have tiny “Blackwing” lettering at the bottom? Or just the usual V?

I don't disagree, I'm just not entirely clear what is and is not included if you don't opt for the package. I understand the package to include: - Air Ionizer (meh) - Rear Camera Mirror (nice) - Hands-free deck lid release (okay) But I'm confused about: HD Surround Vision1 Surround Vision...

Finalizing options with my dealer and considering not adding the parking package to a 5BW order? It’s not overly expensive, just looking to limit the amount of electronic stuff that may not even get delivered… Anyone out there without this package? I assume the car still has a reverse camera...

Woohoo! Got the call today that my dealership got a 2023 allocation. Confirming my options now. As per Exia, carbon packages on constraint and the carbon-backed seats. Went with: Wave Metallic Suede back/Jet Black seats Tech Bronze wheels Red brake calipers Red seat belts Ultra sunroof...

Interesting. Those OZ’s would be a nice winter setup. Are those specs a fit for the 5BW?

However in the 5BW the "high perf" (mid level) seats are the equivalent of the highest package 4BW seats. The full semi-aniline seats with carbon backs are unique to the 5BW. OP, I think all the heating/cooling/adjustments are the same b/w mid level and highest level for the 5BW. Most seem...

Yep that’s my thought for sure. I assume no word on 2023 pricing for Canada?

Nice! Curious where you are in Canada and what dealer? Im first in line at my local dealer in Kitchener, but they only got 1 2022. Could be awhile for that 2023…

Hey I love the G80. Was all set to order a tanzanite blue base model manual until the 5BW details leaked out. Just had to have another V8 + manual while still possible! The green is sweet too. Awesome pair of cars.

Sure that makes sense if you may move. I’ll be stuck in front plates land here in Ontario so figure I’ll just bite the bullet and get it mounted. I actually don’t hate the look on the 5BW. If I were getting an M3, I might have to think about it. That front end looks (even more) whack...

Maybe I’m naive on this topic but what’s the benefit of the tow hook bracket? Like TY I think the standard mounting looks way better. Never understood the idea of mounting a plate asymmetrically as a better option. Is it just to save the drilling and allow for removal for times when you...

Yeah, I’m just leery of the imperfect fitment options from 3rd parties currently. Some peace of mind to just pay the premium for OEM in this case. Mind you I’ve never done so for prior cars and winter wheels

Anyone actually attempted to order an extra set of OEM wheels? Curious on what the word is on availability and pricing? Hoping to get Tech Bronze for summers and the Satin Graphite for winter duty. Mind you...if I ever actually get a car! :drink

This. Or...if I prioritized a midsize V8 but could only have an auto, I'd opt for an M550xi

Curious what winter tires you went with? Haven’t seen much more info on options out there…

This. You should certainly be able to get your deposit back with some nice communication to the senior management of the dealership. They might be better off selling it to someone else anyway if they're interested in marking it up once it arrives! That said - I'd wait it out in your shoes...

I think you’re really tempting fate to try and update your order for something as small as brake colour. Just roll with the blue, they’ll look great with the bronze wheels.

I'd recommend approaching other dealers. 15 orders ahead of you is a lot! I've placed deposits at two dealers here in Ontario back in October (5 months now...) and I was 2nd in line at both. Fortunately they've now both received the build allocation for their first in line (though cars...
