BMW says the M8 Competition Coupé embodies a perfect fusion of exceptional performance and progressive luxury. The brand says that this 2-door 4-seater sports car is the most powerful superlative of all the BMWs. It is bold, audacious and uncompromising, claims BMW. Furthermore, it comes with BMW M's most powerful engine, a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8. But, BMW has elegantly translated its M genes for everyday use. The M8 Competition Coupé offers a luxurious ambience with the ultimate motorsport feeling and is designed to challenge the limits of dynamic performance. BMW M8 Competition Coupé 50 Jahre M Edition - Variants, Pricing & Colour Options The new limited edition from BMW India is available only with the higher-spec M Competition package of the M8 Coupé.

There are also large air intakes that widen at the bottom, hinting at the immense cooling requirements of the high-performance engine and brakes.

At the sides, you see the flared aluminium wings with M gills and M8 Competition designation. There are also new 20-inch double-spoke jet black alloy wheels and red-coloured M compound brake callipers. Other exterior highlights and changes include - a special 50 Jahre M emblem, Competition badging, and kidney grille in high black gloss. In addition to this, BMW is also offering M Carbon exterior package as standard on the new M8 for the first time in India. The package includes lots of carbon fibre sections all over. These include - the front bumper, side air intake, exterior mirror caps, rear spoiler and the complete rear diffuser. Other additional options include an M Carbon engine cover, M Carbon ceramic brakes and more. BMW M8 Competition Coupé 50 Jahre M Edition - Interior Highlights BMW says the driver-focused interior of the M8 Coupé is a commitment to sportiness and absolute luxury. Getting in, you see the M8 Competition lettering on the door sill. On the inside, the driver and passenger are greeted to a sporty and low seating position. The M8 Competition Coupé 50 Jahre M Edition features M Sport Seats, which offer comfort as well as superior grip, thanks to their side bolsters. The interior gets a full leather two-tone Merino upholstery with hexagonal embroidery in the seat centre section and an exclusive illuminated 'M8' logo in the headrest.
