I've been challenged to get at it on the highway more times than I'd like to admit. I don't always take the bait unless they have a legit chance. Lol. I love this car more and more tbh. Still always excited to get into it. I'm sure the M8 will be ridiculous but I don't see myself needing much more than what this car has to offer.
BMW has massaged many of their "not full M cars" so well and fast that the cost to rewards are not worth it for many.
The ride of the upcoming M8 will be harsher as well. This is a major issue for many of us that want a powerful vehicle but don't need it to be so hard core. I think the M850 hits it just right. How much faster do you need to go and you will end up paying $25k more to go only .20 of a second faster 0-60mph with a full M and have a harsher over all ride. Unless you track the car, it's not a good trade off.
Spot on! I am using this as my daily driver so I do want some comfort during my commute.
