What Owners are Saying About the 2026 BMW 8 Series

"Great car"

"Powerful yet comfortable coupe that has great looks. No mechanical problems in 30k miles. Mileage around town 20.5 summer 21.5 winter. Never have taken rear passengers, too small back seat."

"2019 M850i"

"I have been driving this car for a while now and I am about to hit 50k miles soon. Not one single issue ever, just maintenance so far and even that was relatively cheap. The sound this V8 makes is just something you'll never get tired of. I sure haven't. the XDrive system really makes you feel all of the torque when you launch it, amazes me every time. MPGs are pretty darn good too for its size and power. The ONLY downside I have with this car is its tire profile, its very easy to get tire damage if you have the 19+ inch size rims. Other than that, it's an awesome vehicle."

"Perfect Grand Tourer"

"840i, everything is excellent and works as it should, great ride, handling, balanced performance, enough power, gas mileage, if you and one other person want to take a trip in perfect comfort in a car that is a pleasure to be in, this is it. Holds enough baggage, good fuel mileage, really fun to drive, beautiful well thought our interior, all the bells and whistles. When I think of this car, the word "Balance" comes to mine. Enough power, great handling, excellent ride in a quiet, well appointed interior, not many of them on the road, I just feel at peace in this car. IMHO this is the ultimate expression of an ICE vehicle, it is the representation of the end of an era, and checks all the boxes. Get the 840i, stay out of the pricier V8s and convertibles, and just enjoy!"
