everything in this price range has something going for it. the m8 is a well rounded machine. people forget that BMW is to be leased not purchased. so forget about the msrp. look at what you can lease for the same payment and you will find very little competitors

if you have read my other post i was all in for a m5. didn’t want another bmw as the last two cars were M’s and wanted to try something different. when i finalized my m5 deal i was 1350 a month. i crossed shopped what i really wanted an e63s but there were looking at over 2k a month. sticker was within 1000 from each other. the cars were too similar to justify the difference in payment. a rs5 sport back had a 1200 payment with a 30k difference in sticker. you get a lot of car with BMW aggressive leases


i can comment that BMW made a mistake producing too many M8s. they should of kept production limited. you see more m8’s on the dealer lot than the streets. i have yet seen another m8 on the streets. seen one m850
but that’s it. the demand for the 8 will increase as they are no longer producing 2021. assuming pricing will also stabilize. simple supply and demand
