    With a final score of 55.61%, the all new Gran Coupe is sure to change a few minds.  BMW has introduced a better presence than both Audi and Mercedes-Benz, as the 8-Series Gran Coupe has a lot more sport appeal.  And when it comes to saloons, that is the only thing that matters.  We do feel that the M8 could have gone a bit further with its design though, as it seems more like a add-on to the standard 8-Series, not a performance variant.  Guess we will just have to wait til next time to see if they can better this.
