Happy New Year! What do you think of the M8 Competition Cabriolet?
TheStraightPipes its wickedly fast
Can I have some more videos of it?!!! ❤️
I missed you two so much.
I think it's nice but I'd prefer R8 over M8, M8. I'd still R8 it 8/8 M8.
@@signfang R8 has a V10 engine and it looks even sexier
Jakub trying to put his hood on while flooring it in a snow storm... is everything.
I was thinking, "he'll get it this time...nope. Maybe this time...nope."
Top off, in the middle of snow... You guys have more balls than *EVERY CONVERTIBLE OWNER EVER.*
First Last yeah they didn’t have to pay the car hahah
Well yeah it's not their car. I daily a Convertible and trust me, you wouldnt drive in the snow or rain with the top down either.
Just depends whatcha drive. My first car was an 04 Chrysler Sebring convertible so you already know we didnt give a fuck about that thing lol
Not me XD I drive top down all year
“Owner”
When number of price is same as my odometer
Lmao
I'll assume your car doesn't have 5 miles?
Legend
😂😂😂😂😂
Yuri looking like a pineapple!
Yuri has some interesting clothing in his closets... noteworthy almost?
I watched the video but all I heard was "WTF's Up With That Sweater"
Yuri belongs on pizza.
Most Americans in winter: Hiding inside with the heat on
Canadia: Top-down launch control
Calfiornia: Whats a winter
Asher Bernstein as a californian i can confirm
@@MalakhiW doesnt california have winter?
@@abyanmuammarrabbani1690 doesn’t really be cold.
StraightPipes: this car has 617 horsepower and 535 POUND-FEET of torque!
Also StraightPipes: Guys, join the metric system.
Join the Canadian version of the metric system*
TheStraightPipes Why not the real one? 😉
We need Newton Meters!
eagleeye128 actually whole europe uses this unit and many other countries around the world as well.
eagleeye128 frustratingly the UK still mixes units like Canadians. Petrolheads in the UK wouldn’t generally use Nm. I think Germans would. Maybe Australians? I know (from MCM) that they use kW.
StraightPipes is the type of guy who drive top down with Sport Mode in Winter...
oh wait
El Cucuy
don’t start these terrible jokes please
But there are 2 of them... Do you mean are the kind of guys...?
0:04 They launched so hard that the roof flew off
"No gesture control", "no massage seats" -- TheBoujeePipes
Billy Hughes for almost a 200k $ I would expect those features
My first car was a 1980 Celica convertible. First time drove it 40 minutes on a New York January night to my girlfriend. Windows up, heat on, stereo blasting....arrived frozen and needed help getting the frozen top back up. Can't believe her dad let her out with me. This brought me back to that time. These guys are true enthusiasts!
Love it 8:22 blurring out the speed ( Nothing illegal happening here!)
I’m barely 3 minutes in to the video and all I have to say is: BMW GIVE THESE GUYS MORE CARS MORE OFTEN!
Top down in a snow storm. Most Canadian review ever. Well done boys! :D
Balls out driving with the doughnuts, the brake stand burnouts, the top down, full showcase of what we love to expect from you guys. Best CZcams channel ever. (Drove my MX5 with the top down every month of the year. Even had a string of LED lights and Christmas music playing in December)
Nobody:
Yuri: I really like the finger thing....
I love it Straightpipes in a 200k car in the snow with the top down driving like hooligans 🤣🤣🤣
I drove the M8 coupe yesterday and i think it’s the best BMW yet. The performance, the power the handling. Amazing!
I'm a minute in, and this is already one of my favorite car reviews, ever. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Happy New Year!!!
One of the best Cabriolets! So powerful and looks so menacing!
Imagine BMW’s reaction when these two hosers gave back this thing...
“Aaarrrrr sorry boot the wet damaged interior hey, we just needed to test this thing in the inclement weather with the top down”...
Surfer Jay Yeah... I’d be surprised if BMW gives them another car to review any time soon. I absolutely love these guys and their channel... but the lack of respect here is quite shocking.
@@Jashue I agree with you but the car company probably really doesn't give a crap. Publicity is Publicity. I wouldn't do that with my car though!!!😃
@@Jashue they gave them the car in the winter tho i know noone puts a top down in winter but for germans they should have known these r americans anythng can happen...nd if u give someone a cabriolet to review they will put the top down
Lol they gave them a convertible car in the winter, they should have known better? A car is a car, owners of it are going to do the same thing, and it’s not like they were stupid and eradicate.
Im sure the Germans, who live in similarly if not colder conditions would have at least thought to have designed an interior that could get a little cold and damp :)
Ridge frost Americans?
Great touch with the intro sequence! You guys are killing it.
When I got my first convertible (986 Boxster) 21 years ago (and still have it) it was just before Thanksgiving. My wife and I thought we were crazy those first couple of years when we went riding with the top down in the low 40s with the heater and heated seats on. But those were clear sunny days. Now I feel completely sane. Enjoyed the review, as I always do with these guys. Does anyone really have more fun doing a car review than these two? Doubt it.
Fantastic review with the top down in that weather.. Legendary !!
I’m sure BMW really appreciated the top down in that weather with a 6 figure car.
They don’t care it’s a press car. They know they’re going to be hard on it.
Not just a 6 figure car, it's closer to 200k.
Right, but 100k and 999k are vastly different. Colloquially, six figures means 100k.
Patrick Jeter big brain time
My friend bought that very car 😭
The new intro is great. I liked the longer outro though. It ended kinda abruptly.
you boys literally rode it hard and put it away wet. ya beat the hell out of it, even stored the top while it was covered in snow.... then brake stands, donuts, and launch control in the snow? well done. subscribed.
You two are great! My son and I love watching your videos!
Another good review guys. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I know what it’s like to drive in that kind of weather and I wouldn’t unless I had to for car reviews. ;)
Now that's what I call dedication to work - willing to get pneumonia for a car review LOL great job as usual guys, loving the vids
just Canadians in Canada
venom5809 most midwestern comment ever lol
awesome vid! great way to start off the new year! Cant wait for all the new cars!
Thumbs up for reviewing in the snow
Like the new intro!
Different but still liked it!
Most Canadian car-review I have EVER seen! Big fan. Going skiing today in the rockies to simulate your test-drive. Props from Calgary!
You guys make some of the best car vids on CZcams. Keep it up and keep getting better.
Maybe only top gear and the grand tour are better.
I hope your videos will catch up with those shows in the future.
Welcome back guys! Man, this makes my Mx5 feel so weak... 😔
😍 this video looks so sick the snow makes this look really cool
Plymouth Prowler/Raptor thing had me cracking up. I wasn't huge into cars when I was a kid, but I loved the Prowler. Had a poster of a purple one up and everything. Happy New Year guys!
You guys are awesome! I`m shocked that you haven`t reached 1M subs yet!
Happy new year guys!, I was really surprised that you couldn't hear the exhaust that well in a cabriolet? I agree that the M850i is my kind of car.
I love the new intro/cold open. It reminds me of Top Gear/Grand Tour's goofy opening.
I would like actually more pov driving its really cool. Nice vid guys
These dudes are straight G! Ripping a M8 in the freezing winter with the top down, doing donuts and launch control 😄😎👍🏿💯🔥
I really like the preview at the beginning of the video!
after all this years this was one of the best reviews!
Major flex driving in winter with the top down
I actually felt cold 🥶 watching this, crazy Canadians 👍
It's in Toronto, so it's not that cold ( probably around -4°C)
I like the new intro! Really hooks up with the video
I see what you did there with that new 2020 Intro! I’m liking it!
What did he do
very clarkson-esque
TONIGHT...
As a long-time fan who knows what to expect, and doesn't generally feel the need to have things explained to me so simply, I don't find it to be an improvement, but I understand what it does for newer fans and it doesn't stop me from watching!
I love that you compare everything to a miata, just shows, how amazing this car is!
I felt cold just by watching this video
Convertible down in winter... You guys rule I'm finally going to subscribe 😎
Man these things are rad. I want a GT car in 5-7 years to go with my manual M2. It is currently a toss-up between used 911’s, M5’s, M850’s, M8’s and an Aston Martin V8 Vantage. Great video guys!
Dropping the top when it's snowing is really going to show how much you love your convertible
Awesome! Winter driving in a Cabrio. Just that alone sells the video for me as a great one among your superb collection. Very impressed by you mastering the conditions and deliver a perfect picture and sound. No small feat with all that glare, overcast, water droplets, cold and wind noise! Also very good reasoning and balanced options about this car. No fanboy going crazy. It is basically useless but at that price range we are way beyond these kinds of considerations anyway. So looks fun yeah send it again into the next spin!
Filming in this isn't easy! Thanks very much
Just stumbled on this channel and after watching few videos, I gotta subscribe! Good work guys!
Thanks
Love the slow scrolling shot of the burnout at 1:40. Beauty!
Well done on the new opening sequence guys!
In reality there have been a problem with closing the roof, the cousin of the camera man says...these guys are so unpredictable 😁 best presenters ever! Cheers and happy new year
Happy New Year for the first review in 2020!
Hey guys... u are doing a great job.... i have been watching ur channel like ... from year i guess or more then that but still waiting for 5 series review
“it’s a lot, it’s too much, but it’s also not enough” surprisingly that makes perfect sense!
It's not the shifter from the M5, it's a brand new one. Great review guys, good luck for the hunt of 1 mil subs.
Lol just casually driving in the middle of snow and rain with the top down. Jacobs face at 1:06 is gold.
Congratulations on recommending the slower/less expensive model,it’s not about cost but actual fun.
not gonna lie, top down in the cold with heated seats and a neck warmer is a lot of fun
Awesome idea putting the speedometer on screen during the launch control :)
God I love the M8. Awesome review guys!
Great job guys .. like the new entro
The videos keep getting better!
I love that this review takes place top down during Canadian winter.
Someone just put a jb4 tune on an M8 comp and it did a 10.1 1/4 mile with a 0-60 at 2.55 seconds. Insane
yesterday you were at 804k and now you are at 807k subs you grow so fast 😁
Great work guys keep it up
The new style and animations are sick!
Wow happy new year, now look at this year.
The way you guys were talking about the looks reminded me of the world surf competition commentators ( the way you spoke) pretty funny.
The Straight Pipes
Welcome back from your break, wishing you a very happy and successful new year!
Aw thanks
Awesome Review. Looks funny with the open hood in snow :D
Well done fellas. Nailed it!
Yuri "liking the finger thing" and also his awesome "dark side" voice...
Liking this video just because you guys drove a BMW -like a madman- the proper way
Remember in 2003 when the Ferrari Enzo came out with 660HP and it was mind blowing. Now sedans, coupés and SUV have similar HP. Unreal times.
Ok this bmw looks soo good, at least the front🤷🏻♂️
Super huge fan of the 5 spoke wheels 🙌🏻🙌🏻 hands down one of the best ones imo
Love ❤️ it! ❄️ Frosty approves! ⛄️
These Canadians go crazy in the winter
loved the new intro
Great video as always! Was actually looking forward to Friday for the new upload. Do you guys think the reason why this didn’t have enough extra oomph compared to the 850i is because of the added weight due to it being a cabriolet? Maybe the coupe to coupe comparison would show the real difference
@5:39 Why is the entire row of buttons moving when you push one? Looks really cheap and out of place, especially considering the cost of this car.
It’s a combination capacitive touch and a mechanical button set. BMW is using it more and more, I agree with you, it feels cheap and I don’t like it. I imagine it’s cheaper to manufacture and install one plastic piece as opposed to individual ones for each button.
Because it’s all one piece. The buttons are like a touchscreen.
You deserve my like simply for the fact that you’re driving top down in Canadian winter, you sirs are the best
4:45 M5 has a completely different shifter. That one looks kinda weird and it's plastic. The shifter in the M8 is leather-wrapped and it looks much better IMO.
Also their criticism about power is just plain stupid. I mean what do they expect from around 100 horsepower more. Why would the m8 comp be way faster than the m850i. Pretty stupid if u ask me.
@@leonardmartin6048 yeah this review was extremely subjective. Stupid criticisms.
@@marcellukacic5221 seems like they are extreme Mercedes fanboys. So biased.
Great review men!!!!!!!!!!!!!🥶
This is the first time I see convertible car review with roof is down in winter in Canada with snowing weather!!! This is unreal
Dig the intro!
New Top Gear/ Grand Tour type intro?
I like it
Super Vorstellung
From now on I want all cabriolets to be reviewed like this. New Standard!
Just a suggestion: can you put in the description a link to the articles that u mention? I wud like 2 read the 1 about infotainment stealing data. Thanks 👍 gr8 vids as always 🤙
That's a really nice Mustang, I just can't unsee the profile.
