Grand touring with a V8 heartbeat
Drive an M8
A BMW M8 car rental puts you behind the wheel of a luxury grand tourer with supercar pace. It's built for long drives that still feel quick.
The BMW M8 Competition pairs a 617-hp twin-turbo V8 with a cabin wrapped in Full Merino leather. It's a standout among exotic and luxury car rentals, made for guests who want speed and comfort in the same seat.
On Turo, you book your M8 from a local vehicle owner and choose the pickup or delivery option that fits your plans. You pick the exact car you want, then check the listing for the year, body style, and extras before you book.

Twin-turbo V8 power on demand
The M8's 4.4L M TwinPower Turbo V8 makes 617 hp and 553 lb-ft of torque, and BMW claims 0-60 mph in 3.0 seconds. An eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic sends that power through M xDrive all-wheel drive. Expect a freeway on-ramp to become the best part of your day.
Handling with standard Adaptive M Suspension
The M8 has the chassis to back up its 617 hp. Adaptive M Suspension and the M Sport Differential both come standard, so you don't have to hunt for a listing with the right handling hardware. You get the same core setup whichever M8 you book.
Choose a Gran Coupe or coupe and you'll also get the M Carbon Roof, which makes the car look as purposeful as it drives. Point it toward a winding coastal highway, start gently, and learn how it responds through each curve. By the end of the weekend, you'll understand why this car wears the M badge (and you'll want one more lap).
A cabin built for the long way home
The M8's cabin turns hours behind the wheel into time well spent. BMW Live Cockpit Professional puts key driving info in front of you, while a 12.3-inch central display handles navigation and media.
Harman Kardon audio comes standard, and some M8s add the optional Bowers & Wilkins Diamond system (check the listing if sound matters to you). Full Merino leather wraps the seats, so a long afternoon at the wheel feels like a reward. It's the kind of cabin that makes you take the scenic route on purpose, then look for another excuse to drive tomorrow.
Stand out with an M8
The M8 turns a milestone weekend, a scenic coastal drive, or a special night out into an occasion. Depending on the listing, you can book a Gran Coupe, a convertible, or a coupe to match the body style to your plans. To compare more of the brand, browse BMW car rental on Turo.
Top M8 features
M Setup button
Three details set the M8 apart: the M Setup button, a choice of body styles, and standout design.
The M Setup button lets you shape how your M8 drives. You'll find it on the center console, and it gives you quick access to settings for the engine, chassis, and steering.
It also lets you personalize the M head-up display, so the info you care about sits right in your line of sight. Dial things back for a relaxed cruise through town, then set it up your way for an open stretch of road. It's a simple way to make a car this capable feel like your own — even if you're only driving it for a weekend.
Three body styles to choose from
The M8 comes in three body styles, so you can pick the one that fits your trip. The Gran Coupe gives you four doors for easier access to the back seats. The convertible seats four and brings open-air driving to sunny days and warm evenings.
The coupe rounds out the lineup, and frameless doors add a clean, sporty touch every time you step out. Planning a road trip with friends? The Gran Coupe fits, while a sunset celebration calls for the convertible (check the listing for body style).
Design that looks fast standing still
The M8 looks fast before you even press the start button. Slim Laserlight headlights frame a wide, flat kidney grille with M double bars, while large lower intakes give the front end a bold, low stance.
Walk around back and you'll spot quad exhaust tips that hint at the V8 under the hood. Inside, some M8s add optional M Carbon bucket seats for a more focused feel behind the wheel. For more cars with this kind of attitude, browse sports car rental options on Turo.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
