Lately, BMW has been in tune with its performance heritage and pure engineering excellence. Utilizing the M8 GTE chassis in the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) in 2018, it proved reliable around the track. Being that it was a massive success for BMW, it fueled the production of the M8 as a luxurious grand tourer (GT) vehicle.
Boasting 591HP from the twin-turbocharged 4.4L V8 propels the M8 to 62mph in 3.3 seconds or 3.2 in the competition model. With such a huge undertaking at the track, BWM was sure enthusiasts of all kinds would fall in love with this car, and they made the right decision. Although based on the GTE, many owners want a more thrilling experience.
