    BMW M8

    The BMW M8 is no longer on sale as a new car in Australia, but it remains one of BMW M's most powerful luxury performance cars. Based on the 8 Series, it was offered in coupe, convertible and Gran Coupe forms, combining a twin-turbo V8 with xDrive all-wheel drive and a richly appointed cabin. The M8's character was more grand tourer than lightweight sports car, with enormous straight-line performance, strong high-speed stability and a more expensive feel than smaller M models. It appealed to drivers wanting a flagship BMW with theatre, speed and presence. Among recent M cars, the M8 stands out as a muscular luxury GT with genuine performance credentials.
