BMW M8 - re-revealed

[JT325is]

i drove an 8'er today, its my girlfriends moms car. i was actually surprised how boring it was being an auto and all... interior sucks balls id rather be in an e30 any day.

[dude8383]

yes, and one of them is mine, right?;)

Sure! Swing by whenever to pick it up...LOL

I would love to see an S70 swap in an e30 it would be fucking insane. That would be a more expensive engine to maintain than even an s38 though so good luck with that.

An s70/2 with the carbon fiber intake plenum and no flywheel from a Mclaren F1 though.... mmm mmm mmm

That would have to be some SERIOUS baller.

Those 850's were hott and had enough power to spank a vette.

Im planning an s70 swap in the future now that parts are available.

Did you read the article, or the thread? The M8 proto deleted the flip ups.

I missed that, thanks.

What are you guys talking about? E31 8er's have flip up headlights! Can't tell if they are there in the pic though.

It looks like they integrated the headlights into the front valence (note the projectors):



Pretty cool, I remember reading about this "mythical" E31 way back when.

+1 on the new desktop pic lol

^^agreed. I love the design of the 8, and someday I'd really like an 850i or 850csi. The interiors are kinda surprisingly not that great, but it does date back to 1991 or 1992.

Good god. BMW really needs to make a new 8 series. Less weight, more power, and more visually appealing than the 6 series.

They should just release this one instead
