Is the prevailing theory that the M8 will go that exotic? I have to admit that I haven't been paying much attention to the conversation around the car, but I was not thinking it would have that sort of "look".
I mean, BMW has the i8, which has that supercar sort of look - why not just improve that platform for performance? Everything at the supercar level is going hybrid anyway...

The M8 isn't an R8 competitor. It's just the upcoming (and slightly bigger) M6.

The M2 Competition (or whatever it will be called) might launch then too, but will probably be later. |

I don't have much hope that the F93 GC would look good. IMO, the current 4er GC looks terrible and oddly proportioned.

But waiting 1-2 years while the Stelvio, AMG GLC 63(S) and Macan Turbo PP or S are flying around kinda sucks. BMW starts strong and ends up playing chase.

Nah, the difference wasn't that big. When you leaked S55 data back in 2012 it was rated at 310kw, but the final number as now we know is 317kw

Do we know if this will be MY2018 only/very limited run? Or more like ZCP to continue on to F82 EOP.
