EXTERIOR DESIGN

INTERIOR DESIGN
FOR THE ULTIMATE PLEASURE OF SPORTY DRIVING: THE INTERIOR DESIGN OF THE BMW 8 SERIES CONVERTIBLE
The interior of the BMW 8 Series Convertible forms a perfect unit of supreme luxury and concentrated sports appeal. Elegant design elements such as the attractively designed 'CraftedClarity' glass application, the sophisticated BMW Individual extended ‘Merino’ leather with contrast stitching or the evocative ambient lighting create an exclusive atmosphere defined by individual taste and perfect craftsmanship.
AESTHETICS IN ITS MOST THRILLING FORM
Stylish, confident and with a powerful presence: the exterior of the BMW 8 Series Convertible enchants the onlooker at first sight. From the stretched bonnet, across the flat soft top which dips coupé-style as it progresses back, to the strikingly designed rear end – this luxury convertible’s silhouette is enveloped in an aura of self-determined sportiness. An impressive presence that is highlighted truly elegantly by the 20-inch light-alloy wheels and the features of the Chrome Line exterior.
PIONEERING FOR DESIGN AND BRILLIANCE
That confident glance ahead: with hexagonal light tubes and blue design highlights, BMW laser light gives the front end of the BMW 8 Series Convertible an extremely distinctive and highly dynamic character. In the laser high-beam mode, BMW laser light reaches almost twice as far as conventional headlights – up to 600 metres – enhancing both looks and visibility.
ACCELERATES THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER
Transforming high tech into genuine highlights: the M Carbon exterior package gives the sporty, confident character of the BMW 8 Series Convertible with M Sport package an imposing upgrade. At the rear, the optically sharper diffuser and the tailpipe trims surrounded by a carbon trim element provide memorable highlights. A powerful design that is further enhanced by side air blades in the front bumper, a centre blade in the air intake grille and mirror caps in real carbon, all of which conjure up an impression of motion in the static car.
A SPORTY DECLARATION OF STYLE
The best of two worlds: the interior of the BMW 8 Series Convertible uniquely blends the comfort and exclusiveness of a luxury vehicle with the purist modernity of a sports car. Choice materials and top build quality create an exclusive, luxurious atmosphere allied to the sportily reduced interior design to guarantee a unique driving feel. The extraordinary spectrum of colours and equipment options provides maximum latitude for expressing individuality. But whichever option you choose, the interior always remains in complete harmony with the exterior’s styling – while the consistent cockpit bias towards the driver is a permanent reminder of this luxury convertible’s sporting ambitions.
FOR A CONSUMMATE SENSE OF SEATING COMFORT
Luxury never felt better: the BMW Individual leather upholstery in exquisite ‘Merino’ leather enhances the interior and imparts a unique character. To match the exclusive interior of the BMW 8 Series Convertible, there is a wide range of stylish colour versions from Black, to Cognac, to Ivory White. For extra-distinctive highlights, there is bi-colour upholstery with contrasting colours.
HIGHLIGHTS OF SUPERB CRAFTSMANSHIP
With every detail more irresistible: the ‘CraftedClarity’ glass application lends the sporty interior extraordinary appeal with its linear-ground finish and the blue hue. The appeal of the precision-crafted trim elements on the gearshift lever, central control element, audio control button and start/stop control is in their lustre and exclusive feel. Combined with the modern interior design, they create a unique atmosphere that introduces an utterly new quality to this car’s luxurious sportiness.
