8 Series (G14/G15/G16) BMW 8er coupe picture thread (G14): THE 8


The BMW 8 Series (G14) was announced on 15 June 2018, and sales started November 2018. It was initially available as a coupé (G15), with the convertible (G14) and the four-door Gran Coupé (G16) variants introduced later, succeeding the F06/F12/F13 6 Series lineup.
A choice for the Individual.

Finally a regular non-M Sport! :love: I love the M Sport as well, but the regular trim results in a softer, more elegant, more feminine design that perfectly fits the car's gracious roofline, long curves and plump hips.

I'm still waiting for pics of the perfect classical luxury version: regular non-M Sport trim, dark blue paint, chrome window trim and multi-spoke wheels.
 
You never see these much in the wild.

A petty peeve, I know. But...

A set of 6-to-10mm spacers would do the 8ers' appearance a world of good. The wheels appear a bit forlorn in their wells and they are not as flushly fitted (with the lips of the wheelarches) as they could be. A bit annoying methinks.
 
Remember when it was said that the BMW's were boring designs ... and now seeing this picture nobody can say anything because everyone is with their mouths wide open. What a hell of machine!

I don’t ever remember a time where anyone credible said BMW designs were boring. Ugly yes, during the Bangle years or that they all looked alike yes, but boring no.

And now...simply remove the rear spoiler and front skirt splitters...and tone down that rear diffusor a bit. Voila ! A very good looking 8er. Spacers, drop and rims work wonders. This would especially apply to the 8er GC.
 
With the latest BMWs the base models don’t need M sport packages to look really good. In some instances they may even look better without M sport.
 
This is one of the few matte cars I have seen that have chrome accents. Most matte cars are dechromed.
