The 2021 BMW M8 range of configurations is currently priced from $293,920.
Our most recent review of the 2021 BMW M8 resulted in a score of 8 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Deputy Editor James Cleary had this to say at the time: With dramatic looks, a luxurious spec, and impeccable quality, the BMW M8 Competition Gran Coupe remains supremely well controlled as it delivers eye-widening performance and amazing dynamics. But there’s an ‘edge’ to the experience you need to be ready for. If I was determined to head for the Aussie ‘fast lane’ in a BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe I’d opt for the M850i and pocket a lazy $71K (enough for a cheeky M235i Gran Coupe to add to your collection).

The electrically-adjustable sports front seats are ventilated and heated, while the leather-trimmed steering wheel, front centre armrest, and even the front door armrests can also be dialled up to a toasty setting. You can also add a 10.25-inch multimedia display featuring navigation (with real-time traffic updates), Apple CarPlay and Bluetooth connectivity, as well as gesture control and voice recognition. The exterior mirrors are heated, folding, and auto-dimming. The Bang & Olufsen surround sound audio system boasts 16 speakers and digital radio. There’s also a digital dash display, panoramic sunroof, rain-sensing wipers, soft-close doors, power sunblinds on the rear, and rear side windows, and a l-o-t more.
The BMW M8 Competition Gran Coupe's interior is a beautifully balanced design with a broad centre console sweeping up to the centre of the dash and wrapping around to focus on the driver, in typical BMW fashion. The dark grey (full) leather trim is offset by carbon and brushed metal trim elements for a cool, calm and focused feel.

The BMW M8 Competition Gran Coupe's multi-adjustable sports front seats are immaculate, with high-end quilting in the centre section matching a similar treatment in the doors. At first glance you’d swear the rear seat was designed as a two-seater only, but when push (literally) comes to shove a centre passenger can squeeze in, legs straddling the centre console. Rear headroom is tight for full-size adults.
The BMW M8 Competition Gran Coupe's 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 produces 460kW (625hp!) and peak torque of no less than 750Nm. That’s enough to slingshot this 1885kg bruiser from 0-100km/h in 3.2 seconds, which is supercar fast.
