now the 850 has a different much more powerful engine than the 750 so fair enough
but on the twin turbo diesel, the engine is the same I think
Anyway, it is a nice looking car

According to BMW (may just be marketing speak) the 8-Series is built on a totally new platform and isn't related to the 5 or 7-series like how the 6-Series was riding on a modified 5-series platform. Price difference is probably coming from that even though yes they're all using the same engines.
Price hike is definitely a bummer since I don't know which F06/12/13 owners are gonna spend the extra money on an 8 and I doubt any of them are gonna replace the best BMW design this decade with the visual mess that is the 6GT, but what can we do
