Beautifully put together and edited review. Phenomenal job.
Finally, what an exciting and well thought out design! Been waiting a long time since owning E36, E46, and E92 M3s. Nice work BMW!
Can't wait for the ///M8 m8
I have a S 500 coupe 2017 and I love it.
BUT your right the 850 is beautiful. I’ll go see it next week if it arrived here!
Jeddah
Saudi Arabia
Awesome video! Beautiful car! By chance, are you going to review an Audi S5 Sportback? (Not the RS5). Thinking about one next year and would love to see your take.
I’ve had three 650i’s ....2012, 2013, 2015. They are classically beautiful as well. This 850i is the revision of them, not a new model. Rebadged as 8 series because the 650 coupe and convertible were priced above the 7 series so now it makes sense. I would/will move to the 850 over the S Coupe, LS500 or Aston.
I'd chose the BMW of course because of it's classic beauty like you said. The dynamics and value don't hurt either.
If i would buy a car purely for driving experience for every day use Bmw M850i is clear choice by a country mile.
Had a chance to drive one for few days and it’s simply amazing.
I was first to argue can’t be any good before I had a chance to drive it.
Bmw made it again and it’s seriously amazing driving experience
Bmw , 8 series, because of that M dynamic handling and performance wizardry!!!
The only beautiful BMW in production today.
So what happened to the BMW front grill? Is it gigantic now? Or did I miss something?
I can’t afford any car that you review, but I still love your video
The 650 series was just as nice. This is the 650 upgrade don't agree first classic in 17 years.
chris s yeah I own the 6 series driven 8 series plenty. I would buy the Alpina B6 my friend has one and wow!
S-Class Coupe. Best looking interior and exterior by far.
LC500 out of the three you mentioned. But if the list included this BMW, I’d choose this Bimmer.
Man, I can't believe its been 17 years since the E65 came out ... Damn.
I wasn't particularly fond of the new 8 when it first came out, but it has grown on me since then & I came around. I prefer the Cabrio though, the Coupe's fast roof is too Mustangy for me.
I'll pick the 8er over the S & LC ... Preferably in the Cabrio form. I'll have an individual 850 Cabrio in Mineral White over caramel Merino leather. Hold the shadowline thank you very much!
Quick question M, what do you think of the Barcelona Blue metallic paint? It looks magnificent in some shots & like a bubble gum in others, I have to see it in person.
Is it wrong that I'm looking forward to to the Alpina 8 more than the M8?
As always, excellent work, M.
Edit: I'd say the DB11 is a bit higher in the food chain, somewhere between the 8/S/LC & the Continental GT ... For that kind of money, I'd rather my dram Ferrari FF.
My choice would be the DB11. It’s one of the most beautiful cars ever.
LC500 performance and not afraid to keep out of warranty. And I am a 7 series guy.
I would buy the M850i over the Merc. The S550 coupe is a bit more of a boulevard cruiser, something you’d cruise around Palm Beach or the French Riviera with and go a max of maybe 65 on the highway. I’m from Boston
@MotoManTV you didn't think the 6 series was a beautiful car? Also I'd definitely pick the M850, second pick would be the lexus LC500
I would have the BMW, I like the way they look and feel over the competition.
this vs. F90 M5? which is better?
why did he say santa maria...at 1.46? dont get it
LC500 .... I’ve driven A 2017 S class coupe along with the Lexus. Out of the two the Lexus drives slightly better In my opinion. The Benz probably has a better interior, ( fit and finish, The best ambient lighting in the business, and unlike you I’m a fan of the two digital instrument panels. Especially compared to the meniscal one in the LC.)but the LC is a special place to be also! It threw me off guard fell in love with it!
"I DONT LIKE THE GRILL IT'S TOO BIG THE LAST GOOD LOOKING BMW WAS THE PBBBBBFFFFSSST"
Words of every single licensed master of artistic automotive design who will later come to call every single facet about this car an instant classic ten years from now.
Personally I love this car. Everything about it looks wonderful. I'd gladly take one of these if I had 120K to blow on just a car
DB11...because Astons look soooooooooooooooo gorgeous!!!
I would buy the Aston. At the end of the day, the people who purchase these cars (people like my dad) would rarely, if ever take them to a track, much less drive them at 7/10s of their capability. So the notion of reviewing it in those terms is pointless. The target market for these cars are primarily for those who are into the brand for the name and what it shows about them. I have met several 850 owners and most of them echo the same thoughts. It’s got 2 turbos and it has over 500hp. I can do 190. Invariably when you ask, have you ever take it to a track to driven it aggressively, the answer is always no. That said, I really enjoy your reviews.
Good video, best 3 series yet. Should be a major player in the market. Pricing?
All these S Class fan boys on here (and probably no one owns one). I’m 62 yrs old. I own 5 Bmw’s including this one. My grandson occasionally ask if I will ever get a Merc and I always tell him, “Yes, that’s what you’ll see me in whom I die; they have great luxurious interiors!” Until then I driving the ultimate driving car.
I`m 59 and currenrtly own three BMWs. An 850 GC being one of them. When folks ask me when I buy a Merc I always tell them "when I`m old". Mercedes Benz, the Geezer`s choice.
Can't wait to hear what Kumo thinks of it on the road!
He will be picking me up @ LAX on Tuesday night in one . . .
s560 4matic in selenite gray, please why? hmm if you can own the benchmark, why wouldn't you?
my choice would be the 840. Lighter weight, quiet smooth punchie diesel & it cheaper again.
This car has brake by wire? Isn't that sort of against what BMW stands for? If you want it to be the ultimate driving machine, it must surely have good brake feel, just like you'd want good road feel via the steering wheel.
They should have made the rear quarter windows able to go down like the original 8 series
I loved the lc500 and the m850 i bought both
Respect.
Why did you buy both? What were the major differences also..is the m850 aggressively fast?
@@jldp24 lc500 is way more stable at speed. handles better in my opinion. has less dead play in wheel, feels better to drive aggressively probably since it's rwd and lastly it just looks amazing and sounds even more so. M850 is more of a daily/cruiser, it has more amenities, 4 wheel drive, a lot more torque. solid car and highly recommended as a daily. the pros of the m850 is that it is more mod friendly and has a lot more aftermarket support compared to the lc - since the lc's ecu comes locked from factory and no one has yet to fully unlock it to add a turbo or supercharger into it. you can definitly do it with aftermarket ecu's but then you lose the option to register/smog it. Ultimately, I love two door coupes and these 2 will hold value over time as far as I can see so usually I recommend both. Side Bar - i've had the lc more at the dealer than the m850 lol
Hinweis?
Ich wohne in Dallas, Texas, wo die Straßen nicht so glatt sind wie in Süddeutschland. > 600 PS is fabelhaft, aber Federung und Komfort vielleicht wichtiger. M850 oder M8? Ihre Hinweis waere much appreciated!
i don't know if its me but this car looks better in the convertible version. Coupe is nice looking but i feel its missing something every time i look at it......The 6 series coupe will be a classic. To me that has more traits of the original 850 than this. i still love this car though
The price point of the DB11 is much higher that the Bimmer. Anyway, if one were had to choose from your list, I’d have to pick the Aston. I disagree about the looks of the BMW, it’s an improvement, but not even close to the Aston or even the S-Class Coupe. And what about the Audi RS5? It would probably track a lot faster than the BMW. I’m not a fan the Lexus’s looks at all, I wouldn’t even consider it. And anyway, there’s nothing like the latest Bentley Continental, which is not the same segment as any of the options presented, but it does it all. The really interesting head to head comparison will be the M8 and the S63.
Is the M850i all wheel drive or rear wheel drive?
xDrive = All Wheel Drive
I'd pick S560 coupe because of its beautiful exterior as well as interior. M850i has too many lines and creases.. I'm sure M850i drives better, but probably not 911 better.. Then I'd go with elegance in S560 coupe.
Howard Lee when are you going to buy it?
The M8 might & should be a v12!
Considering the M850i is in the same price ball park as the M5 Competition Pack, which is faster, more powerful, more practical, has similar tech, it's a no brainer to spend the money on the M5.
The most important question is: Would a 6.6 L V12 fit into the 8-Series engine bay?
You know what that should have been an option for this car, I just dont know what it does for dynamics. as you know for BMW dynamics are first before power
@@horismainza7808 The 8 is not really a sports car, it's more of a GT. The original 8 Series also had two V12 versions, the 850i and the 850 CSi
BMW missed the mark on the GT segment by excluding the 840d from the US. I bought my A7 TDI because I got sick of stopping at the gas station every 3-4 days with my 750i as part of my commute. There are no longer any efficient Grand Tourers on the market that are sexy, great handling cars. ...which is entirely the point of a GT.
CANYONS? FUN
FREEWAY? FUN!
TRAFFIC? No FUN 🤗🤣❤️👍🏽
I would choose the Lexus LC500 because of the the design language, comfort, and they are known as “Extremely Reliable and Bulletproof”.
The lc500 is tiny inside
Between all the big coupes I would have chosen the M850i, but for the lack of a sunroof option - in such a luxury car this omission is unforgivable.
Mohsin Wadee Still surprised why people want sunroofs. It takes away head room, adds more weight, and really effects the chassis handling dynamics.
TOTALLY agree!!!!
850 offers a sunroof now ....M8 Doesn't
@@Foregrlz only the gran Coupe, not the 2 door
First, for the second time😀. With a interesting car video to watch. Oh, what a day
Our Champion!
S class coupe all day every day
I would choose the S Class Coupe every day :-)
I haven't driven any of these but calling the 8 the best looking BMW means nothing considering the LC is still the best looking vehicle PERIOD for less than or right at 100k.
Also, I'm sure the fake exhaust in the 8 sounds good but that too is nothing compared to the raw sounding 5.0v8 in the LC. The LC may not be as fast as this but who cares? If speed is all you care about then buy a mustang that the 8 resembles and save you some money.
My verdict: I'll still buy a Lexus LC and rack miles on it and resell it for more than the BMW that barely got driven.
I wish they would of come out with a Hard-Top convertible instead of a rag top. I'm pretty sure the LC500 is coming out with a Hard-Top just like their old SC 430 that I owned and regretted selling it. Great Car that was!
4500 lbs??? Most family sedan's from the late 90's were only 3500 lbs !
You would be nuts to choose this car over the s-class coupe. I stepped into my uncle's 2018 s-class coupe and it was freaking masterpiece. It's a place where you want to be in. Just look how bland and simple the interior looks 2:07 ...
DB11 because Aston
If it's about price and beauty why not the LC500? Exterior you can argue, but I think most would agree it has a superior interior. Although it does have a lot less power
Waiting for the LC F
Because the Aston will always rule when it comes to looks.
The LC 500 front grill is a tough pill to swallow for me...I keep waiting for the to move away from it. Beautiful from the side though.
@@AZdroptop I don't mind the front grill too much. It gives it a distinct enough style that you can successfully spot a modern Lexus from a mile away - which I guess is what Lexus were looking to achieve
Because car is slow In comparison and navigation sucks. All it has is looks.
I would choose The 8! Price and Quality 👍
This is a beautiful design; however, it leaves me the impression of an elongated Mustang at certain angles.
The mustang itself looks stretched out and bulbous
Lc 500 for me, I thank you
0-06 in 4.5 sec for lx I considered it but it’s not worth money
Hopefully the m8 doesn't have fake exhaust smh 😔
DB11 V12 - The sound and the rear end :)
Wait 3 or years and you can get this 850 for below $40k
Nice Mustang...... I mean, BMW.
ahahahahahah
S class coupe I would choose because I feel when your spending over a 100 grand on a coupe it should be pillarless for that much money. The S class coupe is the only one pillarless. I think bmw dropped the ball on the M850 I by not making it pillarless like the original one.
that grille is a disaster.........gopping
LUXO Cruise missile
DB11. Exclusivity.
❤БМВ
Driving on track holding the wheel with only finger tips is so wrong. 🤔
DB 11 V8
I have the M850i and the handling is a bit soft and not very precise, but man oh man is it quick. I think the 0-60 time is much closer to 3 seconds than to 4. Emotionally I'd love an M8, but really here in the UK, there's just no way to appreciate any (marginally) increased performance. The M850i is fast enough already.
I would go with lc500. I love the interior in that car and the best v8 sound. Don’t forget the reliability.
hhahahahahahahaha
Horis Mainza hohohohohoho
Any Porsche over this.
I'm keeping my SL55 AMG. Same weight, HP, and 600 TQ.
The E65 is the best selling 7 series generation
So, the Toyota Camry is the best selling car . . .
@@MotoManTV Toyota Camry is a GREAT car for its intended purpose. Luxury car buyers actually liked the E65 - it is still the only 7 to ever outsell the S-Class.
Если вы не совершаете ошибок, значит, вы и не пытаетесь что-то сделать.
M8
Wireless braking? Electric brake system? This is not gonna fly well with buyers. Just ask Mercedes how its wireless brake system went with buyers. Buyers did not like the electric brake system that Mercedes had to switch back to conventional brake system
Db11 because I would rather say I drive an Aston.
db11....mmmm
Okay so the question is: Lexus LC 500 or BMW 850i 😎
mercedes
Methinks the previous 6 series Gran Coupe was better looking than the new 8 series.
It does look like a current gen Mustang in profile though 😬
Looks like a mustang
I would take the Lexus in a heartbeat. But, I’m bias. Also, I don’t like the interior of the 8 series
Even with the 8 series the exhaust note is fake ... For that price range Lc500 will be my choice, the interior even makes much sense
The pretentious days of automotives. It just gets manufacturers to charge and arm and a leg for cheap tech.
DB11. It's just more attractive
I'm probably going to get a lot of hate for this...But honestly the 2018 Kia Stinger GT (rear wheel or all wheel drive) looks a lot better than this. Also, has the better, warranty, price and far lower maintenance costs. Only Down side is I've always seen KIA as a Woman's brand and can't see myself driving one. But they've come along way.
Tony D nope
Nice try sponsored Kia ad
@@BigBoss-ps6vk
What?! Sponsored KIA ad...how so? Making an obvious comparison..you call that an Ad? Name one false thing about my observation/comparison? I'll wait...🤔
S550 coupe or DB11, no BMWs for me!
Funny when lexus are over weight that's all they talk about not BMW off course.
Giant 4-series zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
But its not beautiful??? Not pillarless and the side rear windows dont go down at the back with an ugly front grill ...dont waste your money and buy a lexus lc500 all day long
I feel like BMW brought this car back because of the Lexus LC500 ❗️
Very Similar to the Lexus in proportion’s and its mission
That is so stupid. It's just an evolution of the 6 series coupe. BMW has just renamed their cars so 6 is a "GT" and the 8 is a flagship. That stupid Lexus is irrelevant.
stubones that “stupid Lexus” won design of the year, Beat a Aston Martin and Bently coupe in a comparison test. So keep your stupid comments in your head. That Lexus also looks cooler inside and out then this BMW and is a better value. The lexus motor also make a better engine sound too. This Lexus was longer and wider then the 6 series. Like I said BMW brought this model back because of the LC500. Only thing stupid here is your comment. The 6 series was fine all these years and suddenly there needed to be a 8 series ? Use common sense. This was not a Evolution of the six series this is a different car. Hence it being call the 8 and not 6
Facts!
That Lexus LC500 is stunning. This BMW is great looking, but doesn't touch the Lexus.
He's deluded,, the original F30 model changed everything with it's V-trapezium flush grille. Everyone knows that after the stock-spike.
Anyway; I like BMW but the Mercedes S500 coupes are miles more better than this ugly thing!!
this 850i should only be leased..too many plastic parts in bmw engines
Kenneth Gitonga where did you see the plastic parts? The engine cover?
Plastic parts in the engine.interesting argument.completely invalid of course, but interesting. But I agree that new BMW/Mercs and VAGs must be leased, simply because of the conditions they give you as a customer as opposed to buying (at least in Europe that is)
i completely disagree for the first time with motorman after 10 years ... this is not the beautiful classic bmw by any means
Shit car. Hideous and too heavy
This thing is suspiciously familiar. Oh I know, Mustang! It's shaped exactly like A Mustang. Ha Ha. The Germans copying an American design. Nothing new. The Italians stole magnetic ride from GM. Wow!
My money is on the Lexus it's🔥🔥
It's rubbish compared to this M850i
