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.

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!

Traded in Mercedes’ S550 convertable for this car! Best move I’ve ever made as Mercedes was a complete mechanical nightmare! This car has superior acceleration with a growl! Everything inside very intuitive and easy to work. Only drawback is small backseat room and slight view in front du e to body style. When you park this car the attendants always leave it up front for viewing and it’s a real head turner in traffic.
What a car!

2023 BMW 8 Series 840i 2dr Coupe (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 8A)

I believe the 8 series is the best looking of the bunch. I opted for the 840i coupe with the inline 6. There is plenty of HP and tons of torque when driven in either comfort or sports mode. Besides I prefer a BMW which sips fuel vs guzzles. On my daily commute over a 5 day period and 250 miles I am getting 28 mpg. Mostly city driving. I purchased this car with every option available in Tanzanite blue. It’s a real head turners and I receive lots of compliments. This car is comfortable and very safe given all the driver safety features. My only complaint is the rough ride with the all season run flats on the “ M” sports wheels. Any dip in the road, and you will feel it. My neighborhood had spaced speed bumps and speeds over 20 mph will make the car feel bottom out. The car is no light weight at 4000 lbs. My suggestion is to stiffen up the suspension in the custom settings. Other than this nuance, this car is very luxurious, quiet in the cabin and has a killer sound system. One last thing to add which you will read in other online reviews is the price tag on the 840i. At $95K there is a plethora of performance vehicles to choose from. But in my opinion don’t look as cool as the BMW 8 series.

In one year, this car had 4 broken wheels. No excessive driving or any reason. A BMW tire/wheel expert told me that the car is VERY heavy, the wheels are light weight and the tires terribly thin. The sales person said that given this situation you have to expect to have wheel issues. Finally I got them to take the car back and BMW agreed to pay but would not take responsibility for the bad engineering. Such a wonderful car and such a terrible set up.

This is my sixth BMW, starting with a 1970 2002, and more recently a 650i convertible. This car outshines the 650 and is in a different league. I’ve had 911s, Maseratis, and other great cars for years. I traded a Ferrari California for this M850 and came out far ahead. This car has a combination of raw power and opulence that’s rare. With 523 hp and a 3.6s 0-60, I wonder why anyone would buy an M8. It has all of modern safety and tech toys. It’s also serenely quiet in the cabin, but has an intoxicating exhaust burble. You can have an easy conversation at 100 mph with the top down. Did I mention it’s beautiful? This is a nearly perfect GT car. If there’s a flaw, it’s the gas mileage. That’s mainly because it’s so hard to avoid mashing down the pedal.

Over the last 20 years I've owned several five and seven series BMWs and none of them compares to the handling, style and precision of the 8 series.

The ultimate GT-ICE machine - 840i

Great car, because (1) perfect balance of performance, comfort, luxury, looks, usable trunk, fun for a Sunday afternoon drive with the other sports cars, great daily driver, good gas mileage, this is the GT that meets all the tests, and it is very reliable with great MPG, what's not to like! Really, the only think I would change is add a spare tire so I could pass on the run flats, and even then, the suspension tune for the run flat Pirellis gives you an excellent quiet ride and great handling....
