                  Wow, that is a beastly 8 series! BMW should have produced this car, I'd bet this thing would have dominated all the other supercars of that era!

                    Was thinking the same, how crazy they were that they didn't.

                          the reason if im remembering correctly that they didnt produce it was supposedly there was not a big enough market for it. MORONS!!!!! Look at the street GTR and the CSL. they should have just built it and sold it.

                            Wow, that is amazing. I understand the decision, but it would have been incredible if they produced it.

                              I feel like one important thing to mention is the 8 series was heavy. Like, really heavy. Even if it had a lot more horsepower, there would be an enormous amount of work to do to make the chassis nimble enough to challenge any supercars. That's my guess.
