Weird section to post this in... but here are my thoughts. Honestly, the interior is probably the biggest plus on my list.

M5
  • More comfortable and adjustable seats, with massaging features available.
  • More (and cheaper) modifications available.
  • More practicality and easier to get into/out of.
  • More visibility.
  • Quite a bit cheaper, and much better residuals.
M8
  • MUCH nicer interior.
  • More exclusive.
  • Lower center of gravity/ much more planted at high (130MPH+) speed.
  • Multiple body styles available to fit your lifestyle.
  • If looking currently, we're much earlier on in the life cycle for the 8, EOP is 2 years later than the 5.
