What BMW 8 Series do most buyers choose?

The BMW 8 Series years with the most listings are 2025, 2023, and 2024.

Higher-volume years usually give you more choice in trims, colors, and pricing, which makes them the easiest places to start your search. They also tend to be the years where you can compare more listings side by side and find a better match for your budget.

What is the BMW 8 Series's resale value?

The table shows broad downward movement across the lineup, which can work in your favor if you’re shopping used. Several years have seen double-digit or near-double-digit drops, while the smallest declines are still meaningful enough to improve affordability. The pattern also suggests that newer model years have seen some of the sharpest price movement.

The 2019, 2023, and 2020 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
