THE M8 COMPETITION COUPE AT A GLANCE

What is the difference between the 8 Series Coupe and the M8 Coupe?

The BMW M models in the 8 Series family are precisely engineered and designed for performance driving. This impacts everything – from the seats, exhaust, suspension, steering, wheels, aerodynamics, and more. For example, the M8 Competition Coupe offers more pure performance power than the 8 Coupe, featuring a 4.4-liter V-8 engine that delivers 617 hp and a 0-60 mph of 3.0 seconds.

Does the M8 Competition Coupe have Adaptive M Suspension?

Yes. The M8 Competition Coupe has standard Adaptive M Suspension, which yields superior handling and an impressive amount of control under high lateral and longitudinal load. You can also change the dynamics for a smooth or sporty ride, based on different driving modes – including COMFORT, SPORT, and SPORT+.

What makes the 2023 BMW M8 Competition Coupe both a luxury and performance vehicle?

Yes. While the M8 Competition Coupe is engineered for high-performance driving like all M models, it is also designed with luxury in mind. The M8 Competition Coupe is equipped with an elegant interior – offering the finest leathers, exclusive trims, and impeccable details that define a luxury BMW.

1-Not all smartphones are compatible. For the complete list of compatible smartphones, please visit bmwusa.com/bluetooth.

2-The 20 inches wheels or bigger come with low profile tires, which reduce comfort and cushioning between the wheel and road. This can lead to increased risk of rim, tire, and suspension damage when driving over damaged road surfaces such as potholes.

3-Cruise control is not a substitute for the driver's own responsibility in adjusting speed and otherwise controlling the vehicle. After evaluating the road, traffic and visibility conditions, the driver must decide whether and how the system is to be used.

4-Active Guard is not a substitute for the driver's own responsibility in maintaining safe control of the vehicle. Lane Departure Warning requires clearly definable lane markings that are not obscured by rain, snow, etc.
