The overview

The 8 Series returns as a luxury four-door coupe or convertible. The 8 is a resurrected series that was BMW's flagship coupe in the 1990s, designated as the 840i and 850i. It's meant to compete with other six-figure boutique cruiser-type cars, offering a mix of pampering, high tech, power, and exclusivity. For 2019, the 8 has a turbocharged V8 engine, mated to an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. We found that combo to be super-slick, punchy, and relatively fuel-efficient in the 7 Series we tested. The 8 Series promises a combination of luxury and high tech wrapped in a sporty, stylish silhouette.

Behind the data

Latest source update: September 11, 2026

Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.

Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
