Dragtimes Absolutely Amazing Performance Review That BMW M850i is an Absolutely Incredible and Gorgeous Car that Sounds Incredible

[@aidenp5768]

3.5 to 60 that’s good considering it’s not even the M8 or the M8 competition

[@aidenp5768]

///AMG The M8 is a lot faster actually, quart mile is in the 10s , 60 in the 2s. M8 is lighter and has (at least) AT LEAST 100HP more than the M850i. BMW and sometimes Mercedes-AMG makes more power than advertised. An F10 claims 552HP from factory and yet on the dyno it makes 600 minimum and 630HP max. Now in 2020 the claimed HP bump is about 50HP (factory claim) so (I’m assuming) that the power of the M8 is like near 700 or over 700 because owners are dipping into Supercar territory with only 600HP? Obviously makes more than 617 advertised HP.

[@knownashani]

@@aidenp5768 The m8 competition does 0-60 in 3 seconds flat, I don't think 0.5 seconds in 0-60 is worth like 35k extra... And also like 90% of the people on the road wont be able to tell the difference... and they've both got the same engine its just that the 850i is a detuned version.

[@aidenp5768]

Mahan .M The M8 does 0-60 in 2.5 seconds according to car and driver which is ridiculously fast, then there’s the quarter mile which is 10.7 seconds in the quarter mile. The leather and material quality is even above the 8. So your getting a car a full second faster in 0-60 and quarter mile is a full second faster. Maybe it is worth it. The M8 is also a stunning car! I would pay the full price for it imo, it’s worth it. If you have the money to buy the M8 you shouldn’t care about by how much expensive it is to the car below it or depreciation

[@knownashani]

Your probably right, my parents own a M850i grand coupe and its pretty fast but 2.5 seconds for 0-60 is a whole other world. Both of them basically have the same interior,The m8 is more sporty, the 850i more luxurious and both of them turn heads not gonna lie...

[@aidenp5768]

Mahan .M Not only that, the M8 handles completely different than the 850i, the M850 is a good handling sporty car but the M8 literally drives like a heavier 911, it’s nimble for the size, it can move its weight so good and on the Nurburgring BMW claims it’s faster than the M4 GTS which is 7:28 seconds. The M8 has a different diff than the M850, suspension, engine, more bracing which means stiffer and sharper handling, top of the line tires, and lighter materials for the chassis and body in general. The car is expensive for a reason I believe.

[@markremington8000]

I think the scores for straight line performance were a bit low on this for a car that weighs 4400 lbs. Good video though and the 850i is sexy as hell!

[@stefanfreestylez]

Only thing i disagree with is rhe handling rating. From what ive seen and heard this thing is very good on track. In one test it nearly matched the e63s amg. Tbh this guy shouldnt keep it for very long. The n63 is known to have many issues. Hoepfully his is good but i still dont trust it. Looks very very cool though. Really good lookin car. The roll racing is a bit disapointing for a car thats that expensive tbh. Itll beat 95% of whats out there from a roll ya but still m badge and twin turbo v8...come on....

[@Cain353]

This is the m sport. Not the M version. It's basically a sportier version of the standard 8 series. The 610+ hp M8 will be the performance version.

[@stefanfreestylez]

@@Cain353 and if someone has money and brains they buy the M8 2 years after for 70% of original price hahahaha

[@sufficetosay]

I was shocked by how well this car handles with the 4 wheel steering. It is eager to turn in and feels like a much smaller car, but you always feel the weight. It is obvious they knew this car was heavy and the answer is more power and much better steering to compensate... The weight is an investment in solid feel like a good GT car imo. One of the best BMW's I have owned and I have owned many. I don't race cars like these guys do.

[@sufficetosay]

The Roll Racing is where this cars weight would betray it. It can overcome it off the line with AWD and lots of power but on a roll not so much. Also two other things it was hot and the driver was revving it up quite a bit self admittedly and the car was BARELY broken in. All things considering these are pretty good real world numbers with a one off test drive.

Currently have a e60 550i bought with 183k currently has 236k just waxed it been good to me put new front shocks I change plugs and coils every 30k with Chinese eBay coils $55.00 for 8 new coils ngk plugs.

@@techmaster777 mid 7s? 60 to 130mph?... Thats the fastest gti ive ever heard of haha. Fbo gti will do about 15-16sec. A fully properly built one ya i could def see 7 sec happening. If you have big turbo and whatnot on yours then dam bro respects it probably flys. Brave though to push that motor unless of course its built. Edit: just watched a video goddam bro that flies knock on wood it holds though. Thats big power from a 4cyl.

[@techmaster777]

Stefan Cupovic stock motor haha. Was a 7.48 easing on the throttle but did have a slight 2 percent decline in the beginning also. Getting meth injection put on to hopefully get into the 6’s. bigger turbo, e85, and fueling upgrades basically. Everything else I did was extra haha. I’m more worried about the transmission though. I think my clutch might have started to slip tonight was sort of slipping a bit on downshifts.. hopefully not the case tomorrow.

[@User-th6yy]

Mid 7's with all these tunes? Wouldn't it have been better to go for an M4 and run low 7s with just an ecu tune and nothing else? After all, its not even a golf R, which are also laughable. Just yesterday i smoked a 7r on the autobahn. 313 tacho kmh in my M4, under 33 seconds 0-300

It’s not amazing but it’s impressive considering what it is. It’s a heavy 2 door coupe with LUXURY in mind, rather than PERFORMANCE. The M8 will embody both of those characteristics and most likely put down a 2.9-3.0 0-60 and much faster drag trap speeds.

Probably for marketing so people can spend a little more money and get a taste of M performance at a lower cost. Just like they have the M240i but its not actually the M2. Or how you can have an M sport package on the 335i that doesn't even say M in its name.

There's a KZbin video of an older version (blue, just like Eli's) that recorded 10.6s. But it's the trap speeds that I find to be a huge improvement (considering it is the same 100kwh battery pack).
