The G80 is available as a base car or as an Ultimate, and both of those are then offered in a Sport Guise trim that will set you back a further $4,000.

The G80 is available as a base car or as an Ultimate, and both of those are then offered in a Sport Guise trim that will set you back a further $4,000.

Not matter which you choose, you're equipment list remains the same: base cars get Bi-Xenon headlights, a 9.2-inch multimedia screen with nav and which pairs with a 17-speaker stereo, wireless charging, leather seats that are heated in the front and dual-zone climate control. Shock of shocks, though, there's no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on offer here - a dead give-away of the G80's age, and a very noticeable absentee for those used to using Google Maps as a navigation tool.

Springing for the Ultimate also adds 19-inch alloys, Nappa leather seats that are heated and ventilated in the front and heated in the window seats in the back, a head-up display, a heated steering wheel, a sunroof, and a 7.0-inch TFT screen in the driver's binnacle. 

The whole "Sport Design" bit adds interior and exterior styling tweaks for a sportier overall look, including, 19-inch dark grey alloys, a dark chrome and copper grille with diamond meshing, new side skirts, and a dual-exit exhaust.
