More evidence that the 8 is the new 6. Model codes follow in direct succession from the F90 M5.
It seems that things will be a bit awkward if they indeed go through with the naming change. The 8 will surely be positioned above the 7 in price. Yet for the high performance models, the M8 will presumably get the ~650hp V8 (whether it be the swan song for the S63 or the debut of an M version of the new 4.0 V8) while the 7 Series will top out with the M760i M Performance model with the ~600hp V12.
And of course the question remains - is the 6 now the Gran Turismo and only the Gran Turismo, or is there more?
