[///M TOWN]

Beautiful ///M-Car ‼️

[Miko M]

Beautiful car!
Much more useable for family, but damn there goes $160K

Rather get M5 and X5 together for that price but there is a car for everyone

I just saw M8 in person last week and I must say interior is gorgeous

[vladberca]

An exotic alternative to the M5 😎

[GlazierGlaze]

Holy fuck that is sexy.

[sdshah]

Holy fuck that's hard.

[Bmwtechgeek]

Very nice but I still prefer my M6 GC.

[F80_M]

Looks amazing but personally I think the M6GC looks better. I'm sure majority will disagree.

[AndroidRobot]

Now that's a beautiful car! I can't wait to see the Alpina B8 that green is almost as good as Alpinas!

[SpencerMH]

Looks incredible, love the rear wheel arches.

M6 GC comes in 6MT, I'll hold onto mine. Plenty of lifetime left for the car to drive for me when manuals are gone for good.

[bjornb]

spec sheet isn't really right 0-60 should be like 3.5 as mentioned in the video. Normal m8 does it in 3.2 so

M8 will do 2.6-.27 in real life testing just like the M5 comp C&D did 2.7 on 93 octane stock so (M5 Comp)

[rjd598]

m8 gc vs. rs7 let's goooooo

[BRNDNSLVRA]

Flat out gorgeous

[crogers]

I'll take a GC in Oxford Green with Saddle interior please

[bimmer456]

Now they just need electric version with dual motors and a frunk. And front motor off button.

Why did I sell my M6GC??

[phoenixbmwlife]

Wow just wow. That first edition has my name on it if I can get it in Comp trim.

[Wiesbmw]

Honestly. That m8 comp purple is a absolutely stunning. Omg.

[TEGRITY]

This is the best looking BMW in their current suite + current 4 series. can't take my eyes off it.

[LemonOne]

I'm sorry.
M8GC is a great looking car but if I must be honest,
I would have to take the new RS6 avant over M8GC for this generation.

[JMon]

So do people buy this instead of an M5?
Can I fit 3 kid seats in the back like an M5?
