Looks like they moved the lane departure button next to the cruise control buttons which makes more sense. Also an indicator that it might be a standard feature in future models.

What a c*ck-up of a steering wheel. Disgusting


The concept of turn signals (and thru media screen, ws wipers) being on the wheel itself in order to cleanse the back part is a GUARANTEE future-trend in automotive carmaking.

Wheels still too small-looking for that whale of a body!

Add 20K+ min for the M8GC base to set expectations

Wait one year and you can buy a m8gc cpo for less than 100 grand!

The car has an electronic parking brake are they are taking the easy way out to make it work. What they could have done was this

Since the first spy shots of the 8 series have been coming out the wheels have looked out of proportion to the body and the rest wheel arch looks a bit too muted. The concept car looked so much better proportioned. Not sure what size the wheels were on the concept but the 20 inch wheel on the 8 just doesn't look right.

If you look in the back ground of the m8 pic with the new alloys, there's a test mule sporting an interesting looking wheel that looks to have an aggressive concave.

if past of any indication, wheels on test cars generally are hand-me-downs from current model cars. Don't expect to see these wheels on the production M8

Spotted in the DMV by someone in a Facebook group:

M8 is just marketing, they could have named it M6 and no nobody will notice the difference!

Wheels are also very similar to the design on the 2002 Homage. Glad to see this style might be produced.

I would expect this paint scheme and something black to make production.

Almost hit that lambo

Interesting, although the 2002 Homage still makes me want to light myself on fire.

[raysspl]

Would be interesting to see if CCB makes it standard... ? Probably not though

Actually thinking of further M8 models to be introduced later but there is more or less confirmation there will be a Competition model.
