I just bought one of these - had it less than a week. I absolutely love it. Way more power then the s7 or gt43/53. Agree on the wireless charger. Mine works, but the contact patch to charge is relatively small and as soon as I start driving, the phone slides around and off the charger.
I own a 23 850 GC. The things that bother me is the interior space. It`s not much bigger than a 4 series and the car is huge. Another thing are the 20 inch wheels. They are bad on rough pavement and when I hit a small bump in the road, it soundsl ike they are about to fall off. The third thing are the OEM wheels. They look like bycicle tires. 275 section on a car of this size is a joke. I put some 305s on it. makes a huge difference.
So I'm about to buy a M850i Gran Coupe. For a long time I was confused to choose between the AMG GT 53 Coupe 4-door, the GLE 53 Coupe and the BMW 850i GC. Since the BMW is the only car with an eight-cylinder engine in this comparison, I finally chose it. I haven't received my car yet. I don't like thin tires either, but I think they have the advantage of reducing wheel noise. In general, I would like to know if you are satisfied with the car?
@@jjodise Absolutely. I own mine since 11/22 (Was an individual order from Germany). Been a great experience. 0 problems and it`s an ass kicker. Especially compared to the 53`s. They don`t have a chance. And the 305`s made a big difference. They are not louder but provide much needed grip. The car came with Pirellis; not a good choice. They are not very satisfying. I put Michelin Pilot Sport 4s on the car and it`s like day and night.The really make the car look so much better. Go for it but be aware, the depreciation is a bitch on this thing. But if you`re in it for the long haul, you couldn`t make a better choice. And it`s so much prettier than those Mercedes abominations.
I have the same auto, in a 2-door coupe', however. It's terrific, in every aspect, and I (personally) love the full Merino Ivory-colored leather interior !!
I have a 2022 850 GC ordered 8/21 with nearly every option but the wireless charger was a factory "delete option", allegedly due to the chip shortage. Nonetheless, an absolutely great car!
Same car as you and the wireless charger works 100% of the time for me. You’re still under warranty.. have you thought about bringing it in to get that checked out?

Thank you. This was very helpful!!
Glad it was helpful!
Beautiful car. The 850 GC and the Panamera are my two favorite luxury sports sedans.

Go with the V8, it’s worth it. I am very happy. I swapped the tires with Continental Extreme Contact all seasons and they are great

@@michaelv6870 You are right about depreciation on this car. A few months ago I made a video about this exact problem.

Couldn't agree more!
I had a 2018, a 2019 X3 M40i and my current 21 X5M. The wireless charger on them always worked great.
Yeah, not sure what the deal is, I guess I’ve had bad luck!
Amazinf car. I would prefer 5 series vagon due to practicality, but this engine probably not available in a vagon.

I did, they had no idea, and I decided I don’t really care
I also have a 2022 GC with virtually every option except the wireless charger which was a "delete option" when the car was produced in late 2021.
Would you consider buying an m8comp
I did, I even made a video about it. Great car. In some earlier videos I explain why I didn’t end up doing it
@@Supercaradventures oh okay.. i’m kinda new so I didn’t know😅
