Maybe. You should take a look at the 8 GC in person...photos don’t seem to do it justice...I loved mine a lot more after I took delivery vs. photos my dealer sent me. It’s a fantastic upgrade to the legacy of the 6GC (which I do agree was one of the sexiest cars BMW made). I wanted that one but they discontinued it before I could afford one. My coworker had the alpina one..stunning car.
I have not seen in person and most def will take a look. My comment was purely based on seeing M8 in person and GC in pics

Your car does look stunning. I had M6 coupe and 640 GC I think the 8 is a huge upgrade.

Its a huge upgrade, especially the ride quality.

2020 BMW 840i Gran Coupe - POV Drive

Did a quick POV drive from my 8 Series. Had the car for about a month now and still get people staring at the car and asking questions about it. Such a beautiful machine.

Install iPad M1 In My BMW

I have a BMW M8, and I love it, but I want to set up a complete Apple Ecosystem in my beast. I want to make Siri the core brain of my BMW and install iPad, Apple smart sensors, and charging ports.

But I know it's a little difficult because I'm not an expert. I have read several blogs like https://applestin.com/, TechRadar, and Apple's official site and watch tons of videos but didn't find much helpful material.

I think that the engine's biggest known issue has been speeding tickets.

In reviewing my order sheet I see 5AP Decoding for No-Dazzle high-beam assistance.

Does that mean they have turned them on or turned them off?

M850I CPO warranty

I'm looking to purchase a M850I that still has limited warranty but wanted to see if a BMW dealer would inspect and sell me the CPO warranty to get the additional year and unlimited BMW warranty. I rather get the CPO under the BMW brand rather than other extended warranties that have so many exceptions etc. ANY suggestions?
