Inside the 8 Gran Coupe you have seating for five, despite rear seats sculpted to look like a pair of buckets, an attractive dashboard, optional twin sunroof panels, and a strangely attractive two-tone color palette.

The 8-series is currently available in a traditional two-door coupe. Only one model is on sale now, the M850i XDrive Coupe, with all-wheel drive, and a turbocharged 4.4 liter V8 engine, which starts at $111,900. BMW has traditionally priced Coupe and Gran Coupe models near identically, so expect a similarly equipped M850i XDrive Gran Coupe to be the same price, there or thereabouts.
