by the way I think the exterior is stunning. Interior I'm actually a little underwhelmed but not awful.
both are M850i, orange one is (my opinion) the above-mentioned Carbon Package opted car, it has CF roof, side mirrors, air intake on front bumper and rear diff, black kidneys, exhaust pipes, and black wheels (at least on pictures from event that someone posted)

but this is the beast, i did not like leaked photos of white one, but this... amazing, perfect, gorgeus, beast... no other words to describe

I hear ya brother but AWD is likely responsible only responsible for 300+ pounds. This thing is fat and bloated.

The F90 M5 is fast but its tough to throw into a corner because of the weight.

I wonder what the weight savings will be for the m8 versus this.
With the weight of the M850i already being over 4,400lbs, I'm willing to bet the M8 won't be hardly any lighter than the F90 M5. Maybe 30lbs lighter. We'll see, but GT cars aren't meant to be light so I'm not complaining. I still wish BMW would come up with a light 911-fighter, but hardly anyone does GT Coupe cars like BMW.
yes, but you forget the fact that this is not GT car as previous 8 series, this is more luxurious version of "new 6", its not really a gt car, althoug it has impressive specs with 3.6sec to 100kph on non-real-M car, this more of luxury beast rather than sporty gt... unfortunatly..i would like to be as previous 8, a true gt cruiser, but this is great too

Only thing I hate about this new 8-Series is that Americans will not get the 40d version. What American wouldn't want 46mpg in this beautiful car?!

Incredible! Greatly executed by BMW. Much better than I hoped for. Even the wheels are one of the best looking from BMW recently. Never really liked the new wheels on the F90 M5 but this one really fits the car perfectly. I guess MSRP will be close to $100k.

This interior put the 7 series interior to shame. If the 7 interior looked like this, it would be a more serious threat to the S class

I'm the minority's here but the design is too busy and confusing. I see where they were going but too many hands involved maybe?

What American cares about mpg when you're buying a $100k+ car?
