Now, if you also happen to live in Japan, you can grab one of these new Collector’s Edition spec 8-Series Gran Coupes. They’re scheduled to go on sale in June of this year for 15,110,000 yen, which is the equivalent of $138,200 roughly. That’s a lot of money, sure, but if this special edition car is also a limited edition (BMW didn’t say), then somebody with deep enough pockets could easily talk themselves into ordering one.
Let’s look at what you get in return for your hard-earned yen. The 8-Series Gran Coupe Collector’s Edition is based on the 840i M Sport model, which means you’ll enjoy a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline six-pot with 335 hp (340 PS) and 368 lb-ft (500 Nm) of torque. In a straight line, it can accelerate from zero to 60 mph (96 kph) in 4.9 seconds with the help of an eight-speed Steptronic gearbox.

It s hard to believe the same car company that builds the new buck-toothed 4 Series also penned the design for the gorgeous 8 Series Gran Coupe. Blending the style of a coupe with the practicality of a four-seater sedan, the 8 Series Gran Coupe is arguably one of BMW s best-looking models in a long time.
Sadly, sales of the 8 Series have been lackluster, sparking fears that the gorgeous grand tourer will be discontinued. However, spy shots of prototypes have shown the 8 Series will live on to receive a facelift. To try and boost sales of the current model, BMW has launched the 8 Series Collector s Edition, a new stylish special-edition version of the four-door coupe.
