What are your thoughts when it comes to the G80 M3? I'm running out of patience and don't want to wait much longer than early 2021 to get mine, but I have concerns about the early production cars. Do you feel that it's less likely for the first year production cars to have issues since the engine & transmission are already in the X3M/X4M, and other technology is already in place in the 3 series, and so on?

Never guaranteed to get a perfect car ... if you want to keep it 10 years then wait for at least the second year ... but then maybe you'll want to wait for an LCI or an LCI.2 or a GTS or CS or .....
I had a '15 then traded for a '16... mostly to get a manual but I convinced myself the updated tail lights and interior trim was also "way cooler" which is kinda silly. They do seem to make some little tweaks but again, that will never end so you should just get it when the time is right. Can always trade up.
