Twelve thousand miles in. Nothing has gone wrong, dealer service has been easy, and the steering feel still impresses passengers.

2026 BMW 8 Series review
BMW 8 Series: built for the drive, not the errand. Illustrative review
7.4/10 OffLot expert score
The 2026 BMW 8 Series is a reasonable choice if the price is right. Engine note that rewards the throttle; driver-focused cabin layout. Stiff ride on broken roads and premium fuel recommended, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $95,000, it costs more than most direct rivals.

We cross-shopped three others and this won on steering feel. the firm ride is the trade-off.
Replaced an older BMW with this one. Big step up in steering feel; I'd like a little more trunk space.
