THE 8 X JEFF KOONS… and it’s rolling artwork! 617 horsepower meets pop-art madness — this isn’t just a car, it’s a limited-edition rocket wrapped in museum-level design!
Overview
SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 2023 BMW M850i xDrive Gran Coupe showing just 352 kilometers (219 miles) at the time of this cataloging. Finished in a multi-color, cartoon-style painted exterior over a red and blue leather interior, this limited-production G16-Series M850i is offered by the seller in Dubai.
This eye-catching grand-tourer, dubbed the “8 X Jeff Koons,” is one of just 99 total units assembled of its kind. The design was drawn by United States-based artist Jeff Koons, who considers the vehicle a “rolling sculpture.” This wasn’t the first time that Koons applied his artistic talent to designing a BMW: In 2010, he modeled the M3 GT2 “Art Car” that went on to participate in the famous 24 Hours of LeMans.
Building on BMW’s high-performance, all-wheel-drive M850i platform, the 8 X’s exterior livery displays comic book-inspired elements. The four-door body is coated in eleven different colors as well as geometric patterns that help to convey a sense of motion and speed. According to BMW, the exterior paint scheme for each of the 99 units required over 200 hours of manual labor to apply.
The interior, similarly, evokes a superhero vibe via striking red and blue upholstery. Included on the car’s equipment list are BMW’s cutting-edge features like the Live Cockpit instrumentation, quad-zone automatic climate control, and a Harman Kardon surround-sound audio system. BMW featured the car on its website in 2022 announcing, “It doesn’t get more exclusive than this.” At 523 horsepower, this unique Gran Coupe will indeed move with the agility of a superhero.
This as-new 8 X Jeff Koons comes with a complete AutoHub inspection for enhanced buyer confidence. In addition, the exterior has been ceramic-coated for long-term longevity, and the car is offered with a service package and warranty through March 2030.
