5 reasons to buy the 2023 BMW M8

1. Serious performance

The 2023 BMW M8 is a heady mix of power and panache, bringing graceful elegance to an otherwise outrageously fast sports car. Every 2023 M8 is motivated by a 617-hp twin-turbo 4.4L V8 powertrain, making it equally at home during thrilling track days and cinematic coastal highway climbs. Such potency translates into some stunning stats. With a zero-to-60 mph time of just 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 155 mph, it definitely has dream-car potential.

2. A sensory cabin experience

No need to wonder which trim is right for you, the 2023 M8 has thought of everything. Its sole trim, Competition, guarantees deluxe finishing and high-end conveniences across both the coupe and convertible body styles. A sensory experience from the moment you step in, the M8 envelops you. Expect form-fitting M Sport seating in soft Merino leather upholstery, a Harman Kardon® surround sound system for your favorite arias or beats, and mood-setting ambient interior lighting, all as standard.

3. Impressive technology

This peak performer deserves technology to match, and the M8 doesn't disappoint. Everything feels easy and tailored to your overall riding experience. Slip into the M8's cockpit-style driving position, configure the digital instrument cluster just how you like it, and then connect wirelessly to a compatible device (via Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto integration) for your personal playlists and favorite audiobooks. Next, set up your navigation before you head out via the leather-clad dashboard's 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen, and follow the head-up display as you weave your way through traffic and out onto the open road. Did someone say dream commute?

4. Prestige passenger experience

While this stunning two-door, four-seat sports car is perfect for date night drives and romantic weekends away, why not enjoy it with friends and family too? The M8 adds a sense of occasion to every journey, taking on the task of creating memories that last. For summers filled with roof-down convertible beach trips with your kids, the M8 is equipped with two sets of LATCH fixtures in the rear row. Or pick the M8 coupe for antique fair visits with your parents. While the responsive ride handling will likely take all their initial plaudits, they'll truly appreciate its 14.8 cu-ft of trunk space for their shopping treasures.

5. Your kind of curb appeal

Expressing your personality is easy with the 2023 M8. Once you've decided on coupe prowess or convertible cachet, there's still a style choice to be made that lets the world know you've arrived. If you like to make your moves under the radar there are six monochrome exterior colorways to help you do that, from Alpine White to Black Sapphire Metallic. If you enjoy making a statement, however, try the ocean-like Marina Bay Blue Metallic or the heritage-inspired Isle of Man Green Metallic.
