Goodwood Festival of Speed 2018 - BMW

raysspl · 07-14-2018, 09:36 PM

Sunset Orange M2C looks good

roastbeef · 07-14-2018, 09:56 PM

i hate how generic looking the 8 series is. just a huge 4 series with a few weird body panels on it.

CachacoF80 · 07-14-2018, 10:48 PM

Thanks for sharing.

Any idea of the wheels of the 8 series? Look very similar to 763m but not orbit grey, they look more silver.

It’s so nice that they wrote “roadster” on the side, I wasn’t sure what I was looking at.

It’s not that hard to tell, one way or another.

Is it there for the millennials?

Beautiful Beautiful

I'd kill to have that Alpina B5 Touring in the USA

JSP///M4C · 07-15-2018, 08:59 AM

Fantastic photos, thanks for posting. I still can't get past these new grill designs.

Awkward and big!

SteveChester · 07-15-2018, 09:19 AM

I was down on Friday - sat in that M5. The colour (and car) was absolutely stunning. It's my next car

jc68 · 07-15-2018, 09:35 AM

Adding photos I took.

Same here.

It is a thing of utter beauty, especially in that colour.

Mani59 · 07-15-2018, 11:53 AM

Thanks all for the comments about the photos!

The fronts are 255/35/ZR 21. As for the rears, I dont have a clear pic of the rear tyre other than the below but looking at it, it looks like 275/30/ZR 21??

OK, got close enough to take these:

brad850csi · 07-15-2018, 02:27 PM

Awesome, thanks for that!

EDWYER · 07-15-2018, 03:42 PM

M8 gran coupe is sick!

Joop! · 07-15-2018, 05:00 PM

Festival of Speed is still on the bucketlist to visit as a Petrolhead...
...nice pictures of displayed BMW's at the Goodwood event.

Blue and white do look good. As is the Sunset Orange colour I saw today at DTM races at Zandvoort:

Beautiful! I would love to have one!

classyfast · 07-17-2018, 01:38 PM

Great pics, thank you for sharing!

Always thought the bashing on bmws was stupid, like why write "roadster" on the damn roadster or "coupe/gran coupe" are people that fucking stupid? Ruins the look of the cars
