BMW discontinues beloved high-performance model and halts ALL orders after just five years

BMW are set to discontinue the incredibly cool M8 Coupe, according to reports.

The sporty motor, which combines fierce good looks with a 4.4-litre turbocharged V8 that is good for 617 bhp in Competition spec, is to be pulled from showrooms in the early part of this year, at least in the US.

As reported by Auto Week, dealers will no longer accept orders for the two-door, fixed-roof version of the M8.

However, convertible and four-door Gran Coupe variants will remain unaffected.

As for the UK market, there has been no official announcement regarding the discontinuation of the M8 Coupe.

Therefore, it is currently still available.

Indeed, the M8 Competition Coupe is listed from £137,850, while prices can vary depending on the body style and optional features selected.

Discontinued or not, the model is a rare sight on UK roads regardless; according to Still on the Road, in the first quarter of 2024, there were just 692 BMW M8 Competition models registered on UK roads.

The latest iteration of the BMW M8 has been around since its debut at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show.

Production began in August 2019.

The M8 Coupe can go from 0 to 60 mph in just three seconds and has a top speed of 155 mph.

But with the optional M Drivers Package, the top speed increases to 190 mph.

This comes as BMW unveiled their first ever electric version of the iconic M3 back in November – with more power than its petrol counterparts.

The new EV will be accompanied by a more traditional alternative as the German firm looks to “hedge its bets”.

Reports suggest BMW bosses were not keen to put all their eggs in one basket when it came to the next generation of one of the brand’s most popular models.

Instead, the decision was made to develop two different powertrains alongside one another, with two versions of the car eventually offered to customers.

One of these is reportedly set to be an all-electric M3, which could be dubbed the iM3.

This variant is also expected to be given a power boost, mostly to account for the fact that it would likely be between 400 and 500kg heavier than the petrol version.

Elsewhere, Top Gear icon Tiff Needel has bagged a fresh £50,000 BMW after selling his previous vehicle capable of clocking speeds of 149mph.

The broadcaster and former racing driver took to social media on January 3 to flaunt his new eye-catching BMW 320i.

Just one day before, Tiff bid farewell to his 2023 Maserati Ghibli GT, capable of reaching 149mph.

The Ashton Jeanty Bears Smoke Just Got Even Thicker

The draft is three weeks away now. GM Ryan Poles and head coach Ben Johnson have pieced together an off-season that is earning widespread praise across the league. The question is whether they can stick the landing with their 1st round pick in the draft. Current projections have the top three picks likely being a mix of Cam Ward, Travis Hunter, and Abdul Carter. After that, it gets tricky. People in Chicago want to know where running back Ashton Jeanty will end once the dust settles.

Widespread belief has been that the Las Vegas Raiders are the heavy favorites to take him at 6th overall, with New Orleans at #9 also being a possibility. It makes sense. Las Vegas’ best option right now is a 33-year-old Raheem Mostert. New Orleans knows Alvin Kamara turns 30 in July. Both teams need to think about the future at that position. Both have head coaches who like to run the ball. One thing is clear. A source told SM that those around the league believe one thing is certain.

“He likely won’t get passed Chicago if he falls that far.”

Ashton Jeanty is a strong probability for the Bears.

Whispers from Halas Hall indicate they love the Boise State star. It isn’t hard to see why. He nearly broke Barry Sanders’ single-season rushing record in 2024, nearly winning the Heisman in the process. The guy carried his team to the college football playoffs. He’s built like a brick house with power, speed, contact balance, and vision. There aren’t any truly glaring weaknesses in his game. He’s earned comparisons to the likes of LaDainian Tomlinson and Marshawn Lynch. The Bears haven’t had a back of that caliber since Matt Forte.

Try to imagine what this offense could look like with Ashton Jeanty, Rome Odunze, D.J. Moore, and Cole Kmet all as options for quarterback Caleb Williams. Throw all of it into Johnson’s offense, and you can understand why some people around the league aren’t wild about the idea. They are quietly hoping Jeanty goes somewhere else. One thing is certain. If he gets past the Raiders, the noise will get loud in a hurry. It would mark the first time in 20 years the Bears have taken a running back in the 1st round.
