July 13, 2020/2 minutes of reading
A few days ago, a rumor began on the Internet about the allocations of the BMW M8 Coupé and M8 Convertible for the U.S. market. According to the poster, making plans for the 2021 style year will not come with two of the 3 M8 styles. But we’ve delved and there’s a little more context to add. According to our own information, U.S. dealers still have a decent stock of M8 Coupe and M8 Convertible, so for now, BMW North America will not allocate any new units. The BMW M8 Grand Coupé can be ordered and presented as an option according to your preferences.
It is no secret that coupes and convertibles are a declining segment, especially in the upper segment. In recent years, the U.S. market It has almost completely adopted the comfort and area of larger vehicles, adding crossovers. Then, of course, some high-end segments will suffer, especially when costs exceed $100,000.
The 2020 BMW M8 Coupe starts at $133,000 in the U.S., plus the $995 destination and processing fee. The M8 convertible is even more expensive: $142,500. By comparison, the 2020 BMW M8 Grand Coupe has a $130,000 MSRP, making it a more exciting purchase. Not for its price, but also for its versatility and possibly for a greater style.
It is also fair to note that the COVID-19 pandemic has hampered car sales. BMW has not only suffered a sharp drop in sales, but has also suffered the maximum from high-end car manufacturers. So, in those difficult times, spending more than $130,000 on a new car would possibly not be a top sensible priority. Even for the richest.
It is not known whether BMW North America will reopen the long-term bank for the M8 coupe and convertible. So, for now, the sublime and sublime M8 Grand Coupe is your only option. And that’s not a bad choice. The BMW M8 Competition Gran Coupé is supplied with a 4.4-litre twin-engine V8. That’s 617 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque. The total is sent via an eight-speed gearbox on the 4 wheels.
In addition, few cars in BMW’s diversity are as surprising as the M8 Grand Coupé, especially in the festival’s specifications, whose badges and embellishments are blackened. It’s great, but it’s competitive enough to turn it into a genuine GT. The spacious, high-end interior, as well as the latest technology, transform the M8 Grand Coupé into a charming companion.
For now, to buy an M8 coupe or convertible, you can transfer it to your local dealer to see what configurations are in stock.
