BMW M8 Competition (G15) specs

Post under review. Will be published by moderator shortly.

Sad this beauty got discontinued, seen 1 today in the same exact spec as the main picture used on this page.

Doesn't it supposed to be named (F92), since G15 is 8-series?

BMW M8 Competition versus Bentley Continental GT Speed.

BMW M8 Competition

BMW M8 Competition the ULTIMATE DRIVING MACHINE

*enhanced.

Watching it tomorrow. I've NOTICED before you say anything.

This ones for you BMW boys!

BMW M8 Competition versus the Lucid Air! Hagerty U Drag~

M8 Competition vs M3 Competition but it's a U drag. Very interesting concept.

BMW iX M60! It’s time for the ultimate BMW drag race - most powerful ICE vs most powerful EV! Carwow!

Spoiler M8 destroys it! Mostly!

Ladies and Gentlemen the Steve DINAN fettled 900hp BMW M8 Competition!

Why is everyone so quick to say the M8 is an F-segment coupe and the M6 is an E-segment one? A higher number in the badge doesn't necessarily increase the tier. The M8 is not bigger than the M6 in overall dimensions and it's only barely bigger than the M4.

The last M6 Coupe was $113k in starting price, and the first M8 Coupe was $133k in starting price. That's not a big difference. Neither one is in the same segment as an S-Class 2-Door.

Here's the S63 Coupe:

It's more fair to compare the 6er/8er convertibles to the SL-Class, but they are just as close to the E-Class Convertible.

BMW M8 Competition vs BMW M5 X2!

So if McLaren and BMW and Mercedes, I'm fairly certain of the latter, twin turbocharged V8 engines are putting out the manufacturer claimed power AT THE REAR WHEELS, does common sense NOT dictate the elite hypercar production cars are exactly the same? The engines are utterly exotic in comparison? I know what that means to power and torque levels and correspondingly to power to weight and NEVER mentioned torque to weight ratios!<these are critically important to punching through the air! Particularly over 400km/h.

We are entering a different age, perhaps the last of it's kind~ I sincerely hope that this is not the case. However, sexy metrics, is gone, no longer appropriate and particularly to my female fans (LOL!), it's not representative or inclusive.

Welcome in DESTROYER metrics and numbers you've not yet seen. From SS to SS(C).

Interesting times. Very.

If you add one extra second to both the 0-60 and the 0-100, that tells me that the M8C is actually pretty much the same from 60-100 as an Aston Martin DB11 AMR or a Chevy Camaro ZL1 (wink wink).

No that wasn't sarcasm, but it's totally faster than those two.

Quote>"and the Competition model's at 617 horsepower—at the crankshaft—with both making 553 lb-ft of torque."

Quote>"we've long suspected that BMW may be understating their outputs. So, we decided to put an M5 Competition on a rolling dynamometer—colloquially known as a "dyno"—to see if our suspicions were warranted."

Quote>"avoid any torque multiplication by the car's eight-speed transmission, we ran the test in sixth gear, which is a direct-drive or 1.00:1 ratio. The results show a surprising peak of 617 horsepower and 606 lb-ft of torque at the wheels."

Hahahaha! OMG it's only been FIVE minutes and BMW have joined the Mclaren 765LT by making quoted manufacturer power claims AT THE WHEELS! I mean 606lbs/ft at the wheels is a montrous number.

617hpX11%=684.87hp corrected.
606lbs/ftX%=672.66lbs/ft corrected.

I mean what else can you say? Very impressive engineering.

I've become a bit of a Benz man, well because I AM haha! But it's time for a little more BMW. And where better to start than the mighty M8 Competition. And there's tonnes of numbers to look at too. There's an Anglo-German project that I'm dying to talk about, but until more concrete evidence of progress emerges I'll stay quiet.

But anyway regardless, the research into this car will pay absolute dividends and if not so what? All good.

AC Schnizter "BTCC" touring car memmories are flooding back. Robert Ragvaglia, Joachim Winklelock etc. Championship winners! Hahaha!

New BMW 8 series concept looks gorgeous:

Not bad:

The 700hp BMW M8 Comp is even quick down under

0-100 km/h 3.14 sec(no roll-out)
0-200 km/h 10.28 sec
1/4 mile 10.97 @ 206 km/h 128 mph
Outside temp 12 deg

BMW M8 CS?

The problem with posting acceleration and 1/4 mile figures from American vs European tests is that the American testers use roll-out which also improves the 1/4 times ie. generally 0.2-0.25 sec so the 10.7 sec 1/4 mile American figure equates to 10.9-10.95 sec European. Most peeps are totally oblivious to this fact which results in arguments among posters. The easiest way of dealing with this anomaly is to add next to the "Acceleration (mph) heading, "American test roll-out" and for "Acceleration (kph) "European test no roll-out" :)

0-60 in 2.5 seconds and 1/4 mile in 10.7 accorting to the new Car and Driver test. Very strong acceleration
