BMW 8 FAQs

• Does BMW have an 8 Series?

  You bet! First sold on the market between 1990 and 1999, before subsequently being relaunched in 2018, the BMW 8 Series is a true icon and masterpiece from the German auto-maker. This two-door coupé and convertible series was designated as the replacement for the BMW 6 Series, which paved the way for today's legendary creation. The blend between luxury and performance doesn't get much better than this.

• What is the price of the BMW 8 Series?

  The BMW 8 Series begins at a starting price of $179,900, which is enough to help you step into the 840I M Sport Gran Coupe. Meanwhile, if you can fork out $357,900, then you'll be able to score yourself the range-topping 8 Series M8 Competition. These prices are before on-road costs such as stamp duty, dealer delivery and registration, while engine sizes and transmissions vary across the range, including 3.0-litre eight-speed auto steptronic sport models and also choice of a 4.4-litre eight-speed automatic steptronic.

• Is BMW 8 Series a supercar?

  After more than 20 years out of the market, BMW reintroduced its much-loved 8 Series for its second-generation debut. Although it boasts a wealth of performance attributes that would put many cars to shame, there is considerable variance across the range in terms of capabilities. The M8 Competition is by far the standout name, and its performance can be likened to a supercar, with a 0-100 km/h sprint time of as little as 3.2 seconds.
