What to Weigh Before Buying

The BMW M8's single Competition trim keeps the configuration straightforward, but its performance-focused powertrain requires premium unleaded fuel and returns 15 city MPG and 22 highway MPG. Those figures matter for shoppers balancing acceleration with regular driving costs.

Its 14.8 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats, 20.1-gallon fuel capacity, and coupe body style are useful points to consider alongside the 3-second 0-60 time and all-wheel-drive layout. Comparing intended use, fuel needs, cargo expectations, and budget can help clarify whether this configuration fits.
