BMW says the new 8 Series coupe, in 4.4-litre V8-powered, 523bhp M850i form, is supposed to straddle a gap in the market. Namely, the canyon between the Porsche 911, and associated sports cars, and the Mercedes S-Class Coupe one of Top Gear"s very favourite luxury waft-mobiles. Still, purely in silhouette and layout, the M850i looks much more of a dead-ringer for the latest Mercedes S560 than it does, say, a 911 Carrera GTS. So, allow us to present the must-know numbers for these two-tonne German cathedrals of power, opulence and technical one-upmanship. And then, you must decide. Are you team 8 Series, or team S-Class?
