Probably, since the M8 and M8 Competition Configurators are now up on the BMWUSA website.
....Just imagine the price of the M8 Competition Gran Coupe!! |

The GC is actually cheaper on the German website than the coupe by about 3000 Euro. The most expensive is going to be the Vert.

Does the coupe come standard with the CF roof? This could be why it's cheaper. The GC comes standard with the panoramic moon roof.

Either way, there won't be much difference in total cost between those two body styles.

I put a deposit down on a M8 cp, msrp $158,995. As it turns out they cannot process the build yet. They also said the options list has not been finalized and will contact me before processing the build. No clue when they will be able to do that.

ditto
I also "ordered" a m8 comp a couple weeks ago... the dealer has really no idea when the production numbers will become available and when it will be placed. He mentioned a Sept/Oct timeframe. How is it they can't know this? They have the configurators online... Let me know when you head something
Here is my build: https://www.bmwusa.com/build-your-ow...7nrxel/summary I guess I can visit the build page over the next couple weeks until I have a production number I can obsess over |

Here is my build.

My dealer was pretty clear that I would have to pay the msrp price. Last edited by GHollan921; 08-07-2019 at 05:05 AM.. Reason: wrong link |

mhbrownie thanks for sharing your build. I have the same wheels on my m850i and think they look great, mostly black but just a little bit of bling. The Bowers+Wilkins looks just sensational especially with the lighting option, still working on how to optimise the sound. I know how you feel on the wait - please see my post ‘still waiting down under’ - hopefully you don’t have to wait that long!!

Yeah, I originally had black on black... (and I may go back once the ability to place the order becomes real). I just felt black on black was almost a little too much of a fad if that makes sense? The wheels I got are only available on the M8 whereas I can get black wheels on any of the models. I liked the little bit of brushed aluminum in the wheels to offset the complete black of the rest of the car.

Overall the lighting effects in the cabin of the 7 series (and the very similar 8) walk the fine line between cool and over the top but overall I like them. |

Anyone else disappointed that Tanzanite II Blue was not available in the M8?
My wife and I had picked that out when our original build was an m850i. The other blues available for the M8 just weren't as deep blue as that so we went with the black metallic. |

Yep, I did get a $1500 "loyalty discount" which I believe will vary by market and your dealers motivation of course. |
