Big news! BMW"s M Division has announced a new display and control system for its performance cars, along with a brand new, customisable M Mode" button. Hurrah! Very subtly, BMW has announced that these two features which also feature configurable brakes, for the first time ever will debut in the forthcoming BMW M8 coupe, and the forthcoming BMW M8 Competition coupe. Yep, there"ll be a M8 Competition. Let"s set aside for a moment the fact that a BMW M car will get an M Mode to make it more M. There"s obviously no word on what powertrain and suspension enhancements said M8 Competition will receive, but it"ll probably produce more than the regular M8"s 600bhp+ from the same twin-turbo 4.4-litre V8 as both M5 and M5 Competition.
