I actually filmed this review back in September whilst away in Italy! I lost one of the main memory cards and figured the video would therefore never surface, I found the missing micro SD card over the weekend and decided to edit it, better late than never hopefully. Loved our 2500 miles and ten days with the BMW M8 Competition Gran Coupe.
Thanks for watching as always, see you at at the next video!

Sorry about the delay on this one, I actually filmed this back in September. Hope you enjoy and apologies for being a bit tired 😉
Nah, looking slick as ever Joe!
Was wondering where this film had got to. 👍
Joe i really love tye way u explain cars
Joe, price not being an issue - would you choose M8C Grand Coup, M5Comp or 2 door M8comp?
I can relate Joe! Video is 100% SOLID! Great videography and scenes. Great informative review!
Now THATS a good looking BMW
Agree ♥️
How did they get this one so right and the G8x so wrong 🤦
The best looking 4 seater ewer.
@@stefanmolnar4345 rs7 says hi
@@bibinthomas5282 rs7 is in my list second :)
£120K is a bargain. It costs £240K in Finland..... Best looking BMW for sure.
Jep, same in the Netherlands. €226k for this beauty...
it costs €542K with today's exchange rate in Turkey
@@mryilmazemre what are the details of that calculation ?
@@neilmcmahon There is motor vehicle tax based on the engine displacement (%220) and VAT (%18) added on top of the total price. Basically Turkish pay the tax of tax :)
5 272 300 Turkish Lira is roughly equal to €540K
@@mryilmazemre That is crazy. We pay similar taxes here in Ireland but not 220%. We pay 36% of the cost of the car to register it, then pay 21% VAT on that value. The Brits don't know how good they have it.
I don't know what was more better looking, the car or the scenery... loved this review!
@Grizzly Reaper Absolutely!!
I'd consider the M850i xDrive Gran Coupe simply because I'd rather have a panoramic sunroof than a carbon fibre roof. It suits the car better. Or hold off for the Alpina B8 Gran Coupé Allrad.
Stunning car, performance and looks. A lotto win = buy this car immediately and go for a long ass drive
This one is gorgeous with the red !!😍
In my opinion, all M sedans are gorgeous looking!!
Anyone with me??
considering that this car has the performance of a supercar, the price is good value
The M850i is also a good alternative, it almost looks the same and is actually the best sounding 8 series.
“If you’ve got the money, and the looks of this melt your heart, go and buy one”.
Sums up exactly how I felt about my M4 comp 🥰. I think a car should always be more than the sum of its parts, to its owner, or it’s an exercise in futility!
Great video Joe 👍
Hands down the best looking BMW to date and performance to boot. Instant classic 👌
not a BMW fan, but this car is mental!! unbelievable
Definitely the best looking bmw. This is the car that bmw should have their other line up to follow suit design wise.
What car reviews should all look like.... driving cars in amazing scenaries... keep up the good work Joe!!
The best BMW car vlog channel on YT! Thx Joe for everything you do mate!
Always love your intros. Just pure driving.
Another Great Video..so wish i had roads like that near me that i could film..i miss the M3cs but the M8 is keeping a smile on my face
imo, that's the best looking and supremely badass car bmw has ever made... Looks good...drives good... A statement with lots of drama!! Can't wait to buy one
You really think this is the best looking bmw ever made lol
I just got mine two weeks ago in Brands Hatch Gray, with burgundy interior and I absolutely adore it! Great video!
The first minute colors have been ASMR
Hell of a car, hell of a video, hell of a view, hell of a bloke! Keep em coming matey loving the videos.
It looks like it's faster than a Dacia Sandero!
Only just 😬
James may wont like that comment
Your fly-by footage is the first thing I noticed about your channel and to date, still the best in my opinion!🔥
Joe, your videos are leveling up 👌🏽 Nice one bruv. Keep it up.
Huge fan on the looks of this car, especially the rear! Great video bud 😎🤛
Production is great on this video Joe. A real step up!
Just watched both episodes and what amazing car trip and great video work.What would you pick between the BMW M8 grand comp or the Alpina BMW B7.
Keep up the fantastic work all the best👍
Been waiting for this one ☝️ Thank you
Pleasure, thanks for watching! 👌
Great to meet u at the bp garage this morning, continue the great reviews 👍🏻
Haha legend! Yes mate thanks for saying hi man 👊👌🙏
Great video Joe, lovely scenery and I quite like that red wine paintwork
Great review sir!! This and the 760lim are my favourite BMW at the moment .
Been waiting for a while for this r review
.. Always nice background music to go with perfect " man and machine ".
Oh . Fantastic car too.
Haha cheers man 👊
Outstanding video Joe! Bravo.
What an epic intro!!! Dude you are killing it!
Great review, as usual.
Very nice colour that could/should be considered for the M3 to come...
Man, what an intro! Great work Joe
Great stuff man! May I know what sunglasses were you wearing?
Thanks Joe! A great review. Just ordered one today.
Awesome, thanks for watching my stuff, enjoy the mega car when it arrives 👌
Stunning car and the external colour and interior colour combo is sweet!!
Love that Joe’s into biking
Love that colour the wheels that boot lid 😂 the whole car looks amazing
I have to agree with Joe. I think this is the best looking BMW made as well. Beautiful beautiful Machine👌🏽🔥🔥
Fully agree! One of the prettiest cars on sale
I love this car - and could be a future classic. We are going to see less and less cars like this as governments push for electric and hybrid.
Exactly, and some recent BMW models shows they are already preparing for that.
Climate change is a hoax
@@Dahblackrussian can't understand why people insist on displaying their stupidity where everyone can see it. Climate change is a fact, you're inability to understand it notwithstanding.
Great looking video Joe!
Great job, i would still pick the m5 comp or the M8 coupe, but this is a looker a stuning machine tooo.
Did the Jauffenpass/Passo di Giovo at least 10 times on my motorbike, however still didn't manage to enjoy it with the Porsche... looking forward to that day 🤩
Enjoying this video Joe and totally agreeing with your comments. It’s a great looking car, it’s the best 👌
That was excellent and some NICE intro
Hey Joe how's the ride across the different modes compared to the M5 Competition?
That interior is 😍. What a dream it would be to live inside that car. Which you’d have to as it’s the price of a three bed semi in Hull 😂
Beautiful car!!! And a great review
Absolutely gorgeous bmw one of my favourite bmw made
Nice video! I’d like to see more oversteerings, eh eh eh! Said that, testing M8, I was disappointed about ZF8, not as quick and responsive (in downshifts) as an M-gear is supposed to be. What do you think?
Awesome ... Definitely would like to be in one of your future videos as background music
Well done review!!!
So, now you've driven both, how to you compare this to the AC Shnitz AC8 Sport?
Great video again Joe, and I agree with you. Its a lovely looking car, but I prefer the M5 Competition.
I just bought 1. I absolutely love it
Joe.. I remember when the first one was delivered to the dealership and when I saw it , I said to myself that’s the best looking car in there lineup 😉
Amazing mate!!
Joe sometimes I wish I could super like your Vids like I once use to do on tinder every now and again 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Brilliant Job 👌
Cheers Paul 👊
Certainly got the looks,thanks.
Wow...what a road for a car review. The car's not bad either. Nice work bud 👌
Haha cheers buddy, I was shattered 😂 Thankfully the road and car made up for it 🙌👊
Should be playing "On days like These" by Matt Munro (From the original Italian Job opening sequence). Very good looking car and very jealous of you being in Italy as this is my favourite country.
It should actually sound better and a bit louder/ more brutal than the RS competitors according other comparisons I've seen.
Compared to E63s and M5/M8 comp, the RS6/RS7 have the worst sound in my opinion. Although none of the new models have a really good sound.
Well aftermarket exhausts could do the job and improve the sound quality and make them more 'bassy' or so..
Ive just PX my M850 in for the M8 as I just wanted one retail cost with ultimate package and I purchased it with the Carbon bucket seats I pick mine up tomorrow
Great Video
Thank you ❤️
Definitely my favorite new bmw m car.
Joe! Try if you can to get your hands on the new Alpina B3, a review on it would be cool! 😁
Stunning looking motor, 4 series Daddy. BMW designer are doing well for the first time in years! PS Where in Italy is that Road? Looks sensational !
What kind of sunglasses and color are those? Very clean.
Unlike Porsche, BMW offers cars with similar power and straight-line performance to its M Competition cars in much cheaper packages. It`s just very hard to justify the M8 Comp over the M850i Gran Coupe and the M5 Comp over the M550i. Same goes for the M5 versus the M8. When the 440xi Gran Coupe comes out, it`ll be a fraction of the price but still be very quick on the street.
Some fair comments and I have not driven M5 or M8 for that matter but have gone through the 2 series..220D then the M240i and now the M2C. The biggest difference in the full fat M car is the road handling. Yes you may not notice the straight line speed between the M240i and the M2C but put it on a twisty UK road and its night and day. Dont get me wrong the 240i is probably a better choice for 80% of the time.
Wow! That is one incredible looking car.
Absolutely worth it. I'm going to get an F90 M5 recently because I don't have that much money so I want the most HP and luxury for the price. But the M8 series look so good and even perform better. If I'm super rich I'm definitely going to get the M8GC.
In that colour it looks 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🤩
Really great review Joe. Honest appraisal of a bloody expensive, but stunning car. Not that I could afford it, but I wouldn't pick that car for the fuel economy alone, (yes picky I know) but let's face it, you could pass anything on the road, except a petrol station. The panamera Hybrid, or the RS6, with it's cylinder deactivation would mean more bang for your buck. But also more time behind the wheel and not the pump.
capolavoro assoluto,che spettacolo di macchina!
Nice car however I look forward to the review of the new m3 2021 against the new m4 gran coupe which hasn't been announced yet 👍
My 2006 BMW e90 320si sounds exactly the same as this, and I’m pretty sure it would give this a good run for the money especially on the corners.
We've done pretty much everything in it.....😜👊
Great video as always
Will it stand the best of time wrt to design? Saw one a few weeks ago, just didn't have the wow factor imho. It's predecessor, the BMW 8 series (840i & 850i) of the early 90s still look gorgeous.
To me it's gorgeous and it even looks better in person.
Thanks Joe for a great comparison. I had an M6 Grand Coupe and now have an M5 Competition you nailed my thoughts on the 2 cars to a T. Grand coupe just special to look at, a really pretty car. The M5 looks tougher but after driving them both the M5 just represented much better value for money, and while all cars depreciate the M6(now discontinued) and the M8(looks like the 6 series replacement) here in Australia get completely smashed on resale. This car is just under $400K here new. Is this crash in resale for the 8 series same in the UK?
35~50% in less than 2 years
Would be interesting to see how this compares to the Aston Martin Rapide.
Is this diesel or benz ? Tnx
Hi Joe. Please could you tell me where exactly you drove and filmed? Which area/region or pass? Planning a trip in Northern Italy so could go try myself :)
This pass was called the Jaufenpass right at the top of Italy 👌
The normal coupe look better without a doubt but this one is pretty cool also. A dream car for sure!
What Color is it?
Of course it is !
A good looking 4 seater with a 4.4l v8 , a very nice interior and a 0-100km/h in 3.0 sec
What about the x5m or x6m review?
Opening scene could be out of ronin ! Love it
You and you girlfriend did everything in it? 😉😂
I just had to... sorry lol
Great video as usual, cheers.
The best car UA-camr 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 and no it’s not 😉 great driving mind
M8/M6 touring lets go :D
Love it
Lovely!
👍
Can someone tell me what if the exterior and interior color?
Cracking location!
Great Welsh 🏴 roads there 👌
Haha quite similar I guess 😉
