Charlie drove the green G80 sometime back.


It's not quite as limey in video.

Looks more gunmetal with a tint of olive than the color on the G80.

The Nori Green Pearl on the LC500 might be the most stunning green color on the market, but it's only on the LC and UX.
Yes it was. But the brown shade on the G80 does look might similar to Autumn Shimmer.

Well it's really the only green BMW has hence I mentioned it, but that last photo posted shows the G80 really isn't 'lime'

Nori Green is also available on the RX

Officially official in pictures. No details on pricing for the U.S. yet, will arrive sometime next year.

REALLY impressive. They kept almost everything from the GV80 in it...

interior looks way better than those earlier pics in this video.

Don't care for sport model rims though or vertical exhaust outlets on standard model.

Assuming Genesis can get the dealer network and distribution issues somewhat together, this is going to outsell all the Genesis sedans combined.

They look the same to me. Though I was of the opinion that the interior was a stunner from the moment it was unveiled.

Really nice! Like the Sport model a lot. Is the metal trim on the door backlit?

Will definitely give this a shot next summer.

There's a feature you don't typically see unless it's a full size luxury sedan

Kia Stinger has those too, but not in the American market. I wish it did as I have to unbelt and pretty much get out of my seat to reach the seat controls.
A number of other hyundai/kia products have this feature as well, just not for us Americans
