Hi all,

I was at the Goodwood Festival of Speed on Thursday and the BMW stands were very busy as usual! Loving the M8 GC Concept!

Some Alpina below too.

I'm going tomorrow (Sunday) - looking forward to seeing all of the above.

Very cool, thanks for sharing. Lived in the UK for three years and never made it to Goodwood.

RABAUKE · 07-14-2018, 08:32 AM

The new Z4 is a EV?

Fantastic photos! Don't care about any of the new BMWs. That old CSL batmobile race car though.....bring it on!!!

mk1-fan · 07-14-2018, 09:42 AM

Beautiful pics.

This is just my absolute favourite BMW at the moment

I know that a lot of people complain about the current aesthetic, but when you see the entire lineup presented in its full hotness like this, you can get an appreciation for what BMW has got going on right now. I like it.

DanG · 07-14-2018, 11:50 AM

Wish I could have seen this. Great pictures.

mk1-fan · 07-14-2018, 02:39 PM

Any chance you can confirm the tyre size on the M8 GC? The fronts are 255/35r21 which seems a bit narrow and I haven't been able to find what the rears are.

Woah!

c63er · 07-14-2018, 06:15 PM

Alpina continues to be special in 2018

Sure - if I can get close enough to it, I'll make a note (or photograph them).

spiceyxi · 07-14-2018, 06:41 PM

The 6 GT still makes me sad. A fall from the greatness that was the 6 GC looks...

Neptune7 · 07-14-2018, 07:51 PM

What’s the name of the green on the f90 m5?

You know the new 6GT isn't the replacement of the previous 6GC right...

The replacement of the 6GC will be the 8GC.
The 6GT is the replacement of the previous 5GT.

Either way, I think all of these cars are beautiful in their own regards.
