2021 BMW 8 Series Review

Price Estimate: $56,590

BMW 8 Series M850i xDrive Coupe Exterior Shown

Among luxury sport coupes, choices tend to focus on comfort or performance. The 2021 BMW 8 Series is remarkable for its ability to deliver both in abundance. On top of that, the interior is elegantly modern and has plenty of new technology features. Choosing between it and the venerable Porsche 911 will be tough.

2019 BMW 8 Series M850i xDrive 2dr Coupe AWD (4.4L 8cyl Turbo 8A)

BMW owner for years with just about all models under my belt. This car, M850i, is by far my favorite. Power, sound, comfort, ease of use and looks. Highly recommend this car.

2019 BMW 8 Series M850i xDrive 2dr Coupe AWD (4.4L 8cyl Turbo 8A)

Power and luxury. If you want the top of the line eye catching BMW with all the tech, and love performance, and want a beautiful coupe instead of an SUV, this is your car.

2019 BMW 8 Series M850i xDrive 2dr Coupe AWD (4.4L 8cyl Turbo 8A)

Came from many BMW and other sport/luxury cars, last one was the 650i xdrive. The m850i is a fantastic integration of super powerful sport car and civilized GT touring machine. While expensive, a lot of discounts are available, putting it well below the competition. Totally satisfied!

Our experts like the 8 Series models:

Frontal Collision Warning: Alerts the driver if a front collision is imminent. The system applies the brakes if the driver doesn't respond in time.
Lane Departure Warning: Alerts the driver if the vehicle begins to wander out of its marked lanes.
Active Guard: Detects an imminent collision and then pre-tensions seat belts, closes the windows, and keeps the brakes applied to prevent a secondary collision.
