New 2019+ G02 X4 forum on the way?

Mike_J · 11-10-2019, 12:09 PM

Nothing against all of the X3 owners (fantastic car), but it looks like the X4 people are getting their own forum! I've got a 2020 X4 M40i on the way, so I think this is great.

arciga18 · 11-10-2019, 01:01 PM

It's the other way around actually .

There were separate forums but the x4 was dead. So they merged them.

I honestly don't see the need for a separate ones and I own a g02 30i with dynamic handling package / adaptive suspension/ sport exhaust and m sport brakes

Previously had g01 m40i

What’s the difference between the two that warrants two forums?

The x4 is a niche car that is about 10k more expensive then a the X3 Version but also depreciates 38 percent the first model year.

Slight sarcasm

I enjoy sarcasm. I wasn't a huge fan of the car when I first saw one in person, but it really grew on me and I became a fan. I certainly agree that it's not for everyone. That said, can't wait to start driving mine. It's been in "production begins" status for over a week now.

Exactly, they are identical cars except for the roof and tailgate. 3 & 4 series don’t have separate forums, so it made sense to merge the X3/4 ones.

I'm sure you'll find a buyer. I'm not doing spacers.

Mine has been in "production begins" for 10 days but the "Geniuses" tell me the completion date will be 11/12. (X4M40I Flamenco red /Cognac)

The 2019/2020 X4's in M40i trim are really worth the wait(and the premium IMHO). I've driven both X3M40i and X4M40i and they definitely handle differently. Both are great scoots but the X4 does have a different track width and lower height that easily shows up in the twisty's. I luv every time getting into my 2019 X4 M40i, and now with some extra ponies in the 2020, I'd be in trouble for sure.

You're just ahead of me then. Mine is supposed to be complete on 11/13.

Good stuff. I haven't driven the 355hp version to compare, I'm sure it's awesome. But I did drive the 2020 and can attest that 382hp is going to be really fun.

Hang in there!

Mine had been in "Production Begins'' for about the same last 10 days then the next update "Dispatched from factory" happened today. That was fast!

There are dealers doing the corporate "Driving to end hunger" test-drive which you can get additional $1,000 credit. I plan to do that this weekend. I also want to wait it out til Dec to take delivery to see if Dec program improves from Nov. Being the holiday season I would imagine it will only get better.

F30George · 11-11-2019, 10:32 PM

Just took delivery last week. Awesome car to drive very sporty and unique.

Sweet looking ride! Congrats.

Sub forums for other topics such as what G20 forums have make more sense.

Thanks friend! I'm having the dealer do black powder coat and window tint before i pick it up, so it might be another week. I'm excited and ready to post some pictures!

Don't forget a cerium-delete. Black trim will look awesome with Flamenco.

I'll look into that! Was only planning grill initially, so i'll need to check out the caps and wings.

BTW I'm a huge fan of what you did to your car, looks fantastic!!
