Used the X4 for Cape Town, if I had gotten this before the trip I definitely would've used it!

One of the big reason was cost. The M8 is still selling at quite a premium which is just a bit out of my price range unfortunately. As much as I love M cars, I am probably not going to be owning one again any time soon. As for the spec, the spec on the 8 is miles ahead of that on the 5 disappointingly. Bowers and Wilkins sound, Merino leather vs Dakota leather, seat heating and ventilation, the seats are a massive upgrade on the 5, from what I've researched the sound (even from outside so not the synth sound being piped into the car) is significantly more "sporty" on the 8 versus the 5. Something I'll do when I have spent some time with the 8 is do the direct comparison (fairly, or unfairly), between the two. Suffice it to say that I think for what BMW charged for the M550i, I think they short changed customers to a degree in standard trim.

Thanks man, I am seriously impressed. Ridiculously so actually. It looks very menacing in the flesh in that colour and with that Galvanic Cerium Grey versus the traditional Cerium Grey. The pics don't do it justice.

Noooooooo! Don't be too pessimistic with this one! I actually really really like this one. Man you gotta see what the inside of this thing is like, I couldn't stop touching the dash and door!
Absolutely beautiful.... Have loved the 8 series from day 1.
Driver her in good health, many happy and safe kilos brother.
