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 Mercedes-AMG GT

Pros

  • It's all about performance and the GT has every ounce of it
  • The 9-speed transmission really is very responsive
  • It is a practical yet performance oriented sedan

Cons

  • The suspension is a little stiff
  • The cabin could have had more features
  • The rear seats get a little bumpy at high speeds.

Verdict

It is very forgiving and isn't hard to drive, meaning anyone can drive it hard, and more easily than a car like the SLS. The GT was born for the track and all its performance attributes instantly come racing to the fore, especially when you have it in sport mode on a fast track. The steering is also extremely precise, though I would have liked it stay a touch stiffer. But this car instantly comes across as a very well-engineered machine.
