As BMW’s new flagship, the 8 Series epitomizes the company’s stated quest to build the Ultimate Driving Machine.
Our 840i Convertible was a lovely early fall companion. The drive modes allowed me to alter a host of dynamic parameters, from mild to something just short of wild.
Its cabin breaks no new design ground but is beautifully rendered. Materials quality and fit-and-finish are as expected. The leather seats are some of the most supportive and comfortable we’ve tested.
The latest generation of BMW's iDrive infotainment system is about as user-friendly as these systems get.
Our 840i Convertible tester included "Glass Controls.” The gear selector, volume control knob and iDrive controller are made of glass. They look great and feel good too.
