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.
