Considering a E53 AMG optioned out is 94k and only has 429hp and doesn’t handle like a true amg this is definitely worth the price.

Joe, lurking subscriber here, drive 2016 BMW 550i xDrive Msport F10. Drives similar, obviously not as fast and refined. Appreciate your reviews in this category. I've deleted all other car review channels from my KZread. This review solidifies Raiti's Rides as my 'go to' channel for car reviews. Why?, because of your consistent format you apply to each review. And when you're genuinely pumped like in this one, it shows the car is a special one.

Some trivia on the M badging....The first Red stripe represented Texaco, the famous American oil retail brand, who had partnered with BMW during the early days of M racing. Blue represented BMW and Bavarian region. The purple was used to represent the partnership and to allow for a nice transition between the two colors, blending as some may call it.Mar 17, 2020.

Really nice Beamer Joe but I wonder if they are going to make a competition model of this ? It doesn’t seem as aggressive as it could be. I would definitely purchase the vehicle if I had the funds, but I would like to see BMW step up the aggressive styling on this M8. One feature that really stood out to me was the passenger side 2 person memory settings!!! If I’m not mistaken they are the first to do that on a car in this price range and class. This is a feature that I would expect on a Maybach.
