2 of 8
The all-new BMW 8-Series convertible has been officially unveiled before the soon approaching LA Motor Show. The beautiful 8-Series is the successor to the original 8-Series from the late 90s and will start from around $100,000 onwards. The convertible version shown here has yet to be released to the public, however the coupe was released earlier this year. The BMW 8-Series will be BMW’s flagship sports coupe and convertible. There will be two main engine sizes available, a moderate 3-Litre engine, along with a 4.4-Litre engine that produce 316BHP and 526BHP respectively. The M8 version, which will have more than 600bhp, will go on sale later in 2019, after the release of the standard versions. Expect prices of that to be $160,000 or more. The BMW 8-Series will compete directly against the Mercedes S-Class coupe and convertible, which has a similar specification to the 8-Series.
