Pros Cons of BMW 8 Series

Pros

  • Well-Executed Design
  • Comfortable Rear Seats
  • Six Cylinder Engines Are Fun And Responsive

Cons

  • Limited Rear Headroom
  • Tech Inside Feels Dated
  • Pricey Over Competition

Verdict

While the 8 series the Gran Coupé starts ₹ 1.3 crore (ex-showroom), the insanely fast and powerful M8 Coupe will set you back by ₹ 2.15 crores. And in between sits the 840i Msport that has been priced at ₹ 1.55 crore. In comparison the highly capable Porsche Panamera starts at around ₹ 1.49 crore (ex-showroom). While most cars from BMW now aim to give you a good combination of luxury and sportiness, there aren't many that can beat the 8 series when it comes to that.

Pros Cons of BMW 6 Series Gran Turismo

Pros

  • Big on space at the front and rear
  • Long wheelbase does not compromise on driving dynamics
  • Gearbox is quick to respond to inputs

Cons

  • More expensive than the regular 3-Series
  • Design is not great and very simple
  • hardly any features for the rear seat passengers

Verdict

While the 2021 BMW 6 Series Gran Turismo may not look like it gets a bunch of updates, it does make more sense to buy one now. You won't be disappointed whether you drive it yourself or be driven around in it. There's a lot of space for your luggage, should you wish to go on a grand tour and you will be doing so in utmost comfort.  It almost feels like an epic chess match. Barely a month ago, Mercedes-Benz launched the 2021 E-Class facelift in India and BMW responds by launching the updated 6GT.
