For drivers who want a powerful sports car with all the comfort of a luxury four-door coupe, BMW has the perfect model for you: the 2021 BMW M8 Gran Coupe. The Gran Coupe is actually the
only M8 model available in BMW’s premium 8 Series for 2021, making it very high in demand. The power of this vehicle rivals any comparable car that Audi, Mercedes, or Porsche has on the market right now, at a very competitive price for a luxury vehicle of this stature.
Everything You’d Expect from BMW
The full-size, all-wheel-drive M8 Gran Coupe features a twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 engine with 600 horsepower (or 617 hp if you opt for the Competition Package) and 553 lb-ft of torque. With an eight-speed automatic transmission and a spacious cargo capacity of 419 liters, you’re getting the practical features you’d expect from BMW, but it comes in a very sleek design that would inspire car envy in just about anyone.
Luxury at the Right Price
The going rate for this model in Florida is around $130,000, which seems to be on par with what the 2021 model is selling for in other states. This is a great deal when you look at what comparable sports sedans by Audi, Mercedes, and Porsche are selling for. The Mercedes S63 Coupe, for example, starts at $169,450. For a car that shoots from 0-60 mph in 3 seconds, the price tag on the M8 Gran Coupe is very competitive.
What’s New on the 2021 BMW M8
BMW’s “Competition Package” boosts the horsepower on the M8 from 600 up to 617, includes a one-year all-access subscription to SiriusXM, and has added the stunning new Donington Grey metallic to their color selection. On the options list, buyers can now select compound brakes with red or black calipers. These new features are of course in addition to the many bells and whistles that come standard on an 8 series.
Comfort and Safety
This premium incarnation of the 8 series is a supercar that doesn’t make any sacrifices in terms of safety or comfort. This is a spacious four-door model with two bucket seats in the back and plenty of legroom that looks every bit as sporty as any comparable two-door coupe out there. The layout of the M8 is surprisingly wide and long for a vehicle in this class and provides ground clearance of 5 inches (which you’ll appreciate on bumpy road surfaces!).
Like most newer-model BMWs, the M8 Gran Coupe comes with standard safety features such as adaptive LED headlights, forward collision warning, seat-mounted side-impact airbags, and a “drowsy driver” monitor. There are also some premium features like the Active Protection System, BMW Assist eCall, and the surround-view camera.
It Just Looks Good!
Like its predecessor the M6 GC, the M8 Gran Coupe is simply a stunning-looking ride. The interior is beautifully crafted to reflect a blend of luxury, sportiness, and comfort. The exterior displays a broad grille with prominent front bumpers and air vents that work together to create a very classic sports car look. Every detail is perfection!
