The BMW M8 Competition is BACK, and it’s taking on M2 Competition! Mat’s behind the wheel of the M8, which gets a 4.4-litre, twin-turbo V8 engine, 625hp and 750Nm torque! With those stats, you may think the M2 doesn’t stand a chance, but when you consider it’s had almost £30,000 of upgrades, is it in with a chance?! There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

M8: Spins all 4 wheels at launch
My Miata: Spins one wheel and only when it's wet
Its still better than my car , my old 2010 toyota avanza only spinning its driveshaft
@@randomthingch1970 Try rolling down a hill backwards, first gear, floor it and drop the clutch. It will either spin a wheel, or your clutch, so it's something 😂
@Feed The P0ny Oh it spins out pretty easily, that isn't a problem at all. Open diff life.

Mat and BMWs. Couldn't be happier on this quarantine Saturday!
Joe Achilles should Re Map his car 😍

Sådan har jeg det ogs;)
I’d be happier if they stopped the bullshit and got rid of lockdown all together
M8 is quickly becoming one of my favorite cars.

Next race: Mclaren 720 vs Audi A3 make it happen
Vintage races. 1984 Testarossa vs 1984 Fiero. 1990 F40 vs 1990 MR2. 1992 Yugo vs 1992 Corrado.
Lool
Obviously the A3 is going to win.
Why not a 992 turbo s vs Macao 2.0T buddy ?😂
Bugatti chiron vs mazda 3
The drag race was not as good as the BMW's iDrive system.
Agree

These are high quality end cars. Not camels!
@@miketheman4341 the fact you needed to edit a racist comment shows your IQ level
@@miketheman4341 high quality end - is that English?
Omar M Khalil
How does a typo change the epistemological facts regarding the history of the automotive industry? It changes nothing!
These cars were not meant for you. Why are you here?
Like other pursuits of the civilized world they are for civilized society. They are not built in the desert ! Not designed there nor born there. See camels!! Post your experience with camels and leave German luxury cars to the civilized world.
Matt: Bottom end of BMW M range
Me: Seems cheap
Also me: Still cant afford it.
Ronem Cers Lmao same bro🥺
You can pick up an M2 Comp for way less, this one is just ridiculously highly speced.
Or just get a sh one with 20k miles for even less🤷🏻♂️
Bottom end its really ugly with that Red plastic on bumper.
For everyday driving a lot of reviews suggest the M240i is even better than the M2, especially given the price.
Government: Stay at home!
Carwow: *playing with Hot Wheels intensifies*
You'd love the 3D botmaker channel then
I social distance myself from everyone in my BMW every time the light turns green 🚦
Just don't go sideways, okay? :s
GamingWiffJohn the Pirelli’s always keep me in a straight line 🚙💨
Nice 👍🏽
Tesla owner enters the chat*
Dwight Neptune Yeah, no battery left 😂😂
We need this race:
Mercedes-AMG S63 vs. BMW M8
Please and greetings from Germany👋🏻
Anurag they did one amg GT63s lost
If you mean the 4 door
Anurag Yeah you're right, the S63 is a little bit slower but it also interesting! But I like your suggestion to run the M8 vs. E63! So let's do it! 😉🤙🏻
Anurag but he got it one time and still lost
David Herter They already had a drag race with a Mercedes S63, and a Bmw 760li, which isn’t even a proper M car; and the Bmw won. So the M8 would completely destroy the S63
Another meda day buddy, thanks for having me along once again, I'm really glad the BMW won 👊
I hope everyone is staying safe in these difficult times, let's hope we can look back at everything like a really bad dream in months to come... ❤️
Ps watch lots of Carwow
I liked the part when the BMW was driving.
Love to see you race Joe! You should feature in more episodes!
@@yajulsrivastava5441 Thank you, I'm sure Mat/Carwow will have me back once we can all do normal things again 🙏
It's cool to see you grow on yt, keep it up! 💪
Joe Achilles get some driving lessons
Guy in the m2 always looks so defeated and simply sad when the m8 takes off
Cars With Nate They are cosmetic upgrades
@@carswithnate its not his car LMFAO !!!
@@tsholojrgaelejwe5854 it is his car
Hi Matt!This is a hell of a video. We need more like this videos in this quarantine days.☺️👍🏼
Honestly such a great channel and since we’re self isolating we might aswell binge watch carwow ❤️
I'm suppose to be in quarantine but I'm on the train going in to town now no one will keep me locked up🏃♂️
@@MuzzCat05 hell NO...
No one here is self isolating
Friendly Neighbourhood Spidey are they waiting for the millions of dead first?
When your brother asks you for an arm wrestling challenge but he is 10 years old and you are 20...M2 vs M8
FIAMMA never thought of it this way lol
Or a 50KG (0.231 cow) man vs a 160KG (1.163 cow) in wrestling. The cow measurement is for our imperial friends.
Only if you have a family of freakishly large people and your 10 year old brother is already 6 feet tall because even the M2 is already very fast by ordinary car standards.
1:47 I think they had a guy calling in the numbers(3,2,1) but edited in the woman's voice from previous videos.
lol
@@Voltaic_Zephyr And she can disappear!
You've got keen eyes! Stop the video at 1:55
I just paused the video looking for this comment lol
Drag racing on wet surfaces is like a screen door in a submarine
Next week. M8 versus mum in a Nissan Juke looking for toilet roll and Calpol.
Mum ez win everytime
if carwow can get the juke R that'd be awesome
What’s that, Julie saw some bog roll in the big Asda’s? Usually takes me 10 mins to get there...does it in 2 😂
Corona outbreak in the whole world
Matt: so then what exactly happened?
Matt, you're doing the Lord's work in these times. I am so tired of hearing endless bad news and pessimism. Thank you guys for your hard work.
4:18 the drag race
Thanks!
real viewers watch everything my good sir!
Last time I was this early Bats were still the reason for the creation of a superhero, not a virus
Mayank Ohri Last time I was this early, mosquitoes were scarier than bats.
@@ack434 lololol gg
@CoffeeLover Well alright LOL but it was probably an accident so let's keep our pants on and stay calm
Thought it was pangolin.....still it'd make a pretty good super hero, more like the thing
Yeah it’s an industry that supports many farmers, still I wish there were stricter regulations when it comes to storing the animals and separating them properly as well as making sure the sold animal is not sick.
Last time I was this early corona wasn't around
Dont remind me of that . Ahhhhhhhh it wont end
Dont remind me of that . Ahhhhhh it wont end

@@nicoth.412 yes , this is just very depressing. TOTAL LOCKDOWN
@@mr.winfrewnoblessonaceturk8094 a total nightmare I wish it was just a dream
May I use that 'the german car won' joke?
I love that fact that you used may instead of might, just to be more polite hahaha
2 best looking current M cars in my opinion. I love the M2, they really nailed the styling on this car, perfect blend of bang up to date with a touch of nod to past 2002 retro. The M8 is just a seriously beautiful motor. I am definitely getting a manual M2, great value package. Perfect partner to the bargain E39 M5 in the garage and neither will be going anywhere.
I want a see a race with the Z1 vs Z3 M vs Z4 M vs Z8
Julio Ramirez hair dresser special ?
@@kells77 I wanna see anyone driving a Z8 being called a hairdresser lol
TerrasClip or anyone with the M versions of the Z3 or Z4 lol.
Z1 and Z8 might be hard to find
Ben Mayall they are still hair dressers or usually old men ego will never drive it how it should be
BMW programmed the M2 to shortshift when it detects a more expensive M car in the vicinity, To make M8 owners feel better about their purchase
Is this true?
[•_•]Hasan[•_•] yes
@@_hasan_5945 no lol
Abdulrahman Al shihan
I hope people don’t actually believe that comment, if you see this of course that’s not true..
You also said this on the M5 race, lol
Genuinely fun to watch guys...👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Crazy days! Just to point out 3 things:
1. Glad your keeping it real!
2. One of the few channels in which the comments come from real fans, rather than for TH-cam algorithm!
3. Respect Matt and Carwow!
That moment when his modded m2 competition costs less than a normal m2 stock where I live😩
Alistair well lucky for u where i live the m2 comp costs more the the m8 comp in this video 😂
Eduardo Gutierrez yes but they are options like the wing and bonnet etc arent stock
Yosif Hamdan unlucky bro but we have really high insurance costs and high income tax so getting to the point of buying one will take years
@@lordfloppa5863 where do you live?
DUDE IM IN INDONESIA M2 COMPETITION COST $150K WHEN AVERAGE SALARY = $5000 A YEAR,NOT A MONTH,A YEAR
HOW UNLUCKY IAM?
M8: nothing scares me
*Straight lines*
M8: but that thing terrifies me
Only if this was reddit and you could insert the Thanos meme. Would've been much better.
@@AdamDawood thanos meme? More like the TF2 heavy meme
DutchClawz don’t think the driving will scare you more than maintenance after warranty but at least they may depreciate quite a bit only time will tell :)
"In just RWD... with...635 hp..??"
Laughs in Dodge Demon
Lol
This is sick! I really want an M2! Great vid carwow, as usual...
Still would have the M2C. Arguably the best M car on sale today.
Well ill get the M5 E60
Bamby Choi the m2 is honestly a garbage bmw. M5 or the M8 are the best M cars on sale today
Manual M2 competition is perfection
Nah
Not for drag race lol
Give it the m8 interior and it would be.
Blacktrous nothing with the M2 is meant for drag racing
Carwow is the new Top Gear for me. Mat is such an entertaining person, I just love watching the videos!!
Even though it's slower I'd take an M2 comp in manual over an M8 :)
I love the looks of that M2 in addition to the sound of that delicious inline 6 ..
V8 still sounds better
This is the best drag race I've ever seen with joe Achilles and Mat Watson
❤️❤️❤️

@@JoeAchilles1 ❤❤
Love this channel🙌👌
Awesome race 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
What a race! The BMW 8 looks just incredible.
MaxJustas so does your wife
M2 body with M8 internals ...that would be win win for me :)
M8 looks way better, why would you say that lmao
@Adnan faqeeh it definitely doesn’t, especially in person.
Howdy, awesome video! I have to say the speed gap between the two was way closer than I was expecting!😸😸
Great Videos 👍
That Voldemort laugh though 4:35
I'm waiting the day you'll drag race F80 M3 vs G20 M340i
Do love a bit of carwow 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Love carwow vids
3:44 best drift of today
"M2 410 Hp goes all to the rear wheels". Okay it's wet I don't have to watch anymore...
Well, this is one hell of a way to be spending your quarantine Saturday!
Loving seeing Joe cameo on Carwow. Solid crew!
I like Joe his always smiling he just has that happy face.
he cant drive for shit
Thanks buddy 👊
@@Luckyjo21 this is a time for love not hate ❤️
@@JoeAchilles1 Agreed :)
Yea he is much nicer than Yianni
@ 6:33 Matt: “this thing just hauls ass” 😂
Ahhh this is a great video, as a BMW fan. I can only dream of either car, but still very happy with my lowly M140i !
Good shots with drone on brake test👍🏻
Girl: oh Matt you're the best reviewer on TH-cam. I've been saving myself for you.
Matt: Let's find out with the Carwow stick of truth.
Why do you have only one like mate 😂
These two cars look amazing
dude, we're all subscribed already - get on with it!!
I LOVE JOE
Please do a test between the new Audi A8l vs new BMW 7-Series vs new Mercedes S-class vs new Jaguar XJ vs new Lexus LS vs new Kia K9 vs new Genesis G90.
Like if u agree.
#BATTLEOFTHELIMOS
Just do it Matt.
There is no new XJ yet
And the Cadillac CT6
Well, you guys would have to ship the Kia and Hyundai across the pond, cause we don't have them in Europe
Muhammad Ammar , Rajyalashmi Ravella , Carwow only does drag races between cars sold in the U.K. as they are marketed in the UK. Therefore as mentioned above, the Kia K9 and Genesis G90 would not be involved neither would the Cadillac as it’s cadilacking from the U.K. market
The new S-class is not available yet.
3:06, you wont regret it I promise 😂😂
you have the coolest job ever
Two of my fav guys on cars . Great team.
Can you drag race the Supra vs Mustang vs BMW z4 vs BMW m2 competition. I think they all are 2 wheel drive cars
Damn that M2 looks so good, it reminds me on my e30 little bit, I don't know why, maybe cos of size, but look so good.
Love joe achillies
nice comparison
Hey Matt! Big fan
Last time I was this early, nothing happened. I was just early.
Best car channel on EARTH.
I had no idea how popular you were. I was just thinking.. I hope this guy blows up.. he's a car guy.
Is it just me or Mat is wearing his previous "drag queen" t-shirt
Is he trying to tell us “something?”
MAKE M8 GRAN COUPE COMPETITION VS AMG GT 63S 4 DOOR
PLEASE
Another good drag race. Congratulations for your good work. Can you do a drag Race video with an Audi RS7, an AMG GT 63s 4 door , a BMW M8 competition and an Alfa Romeo giulia Quadrifoglio? #stayathome
Love both cars, would be happy with either!!!
Lets be honest
This is just unfair
:(
Yet you still came to watch ;)
@@carwow Ou,that's not nice from you :D lil bit cocky aren't ya xd
Nah, if the road wasn´t so wet and the M2 had 4WD, it wouldn´t be such a difference. All in all, from a price to performance standpoint, buying the most expansive car isn´t worth it.
@@jimbeam4736 But it was wet and M2 is only produced as 2WD, so your point is?
BMW fanboys always have excuses. Even when losing to another BMW lmaooooo. You can't make this up.
When you hear the prices of these cars you actually realise how ridiculous it is
We all love cars! But in these times when people losing jobs and more importantly becoming sick. All these expensive cars just aren’t worth it.
I still love cars but it makes you think twice.
And imagine all those guys who have cars on PCP. Crazy - unnecessary pressure if people losing their jobs.
Just look after your health guys.
Thanks to Matt and CarWow for keeping videos coming as we need entertainment to get through these times 👍
77 isnt that bad, the M8 is too expensive
? im not following, how does the novel coronavirus change the value of cars? if anything i think theyre more worrh it because its an escape from the constant reminders that were in a global pandemic
Obviously health is the most important. People getting an M2 on pcp is nothing compared to the insane levels of wealth out there. People with Bugatti money are the out of touch fucks who hoard their wealth offshore. The rich do none of the work and pay none of the taxes. The middle class do nearly all the work and pay all the taxes. The poor people are kept around to scare the middle class.
they are worth more probably, but the money in your bank is going to lose it’s value probably, so it’s going to be more expensive that way. Import from the US etc. to Norway is now Double the price of what it was in december
AikarambaNorway you’re right re money losing value - as the £ has dropped so much. But then the car is dropping in value too if it is also priced in £..?
Good one m8
Driving so many amazings cars and only drag racing them, could you also compare them to a standard track? This would be your next big step for your channel and believe me it would benefit a lot
Why’s it that every single M2 competition drag race on TH-cam done when the track is damp or wet 😂
In the UK the odds of that happening are pretty high
EAST OR WEST, CARWOW AND MAT WATSON IS THE BEST! PERIOD!!✌️🔥🔥
Love from INDIA🇮🇳♥️♥️
Hi Matt nice vid but can you dow somme drag races in a kia stinger gts too se what it can dow against its rivals like s5 end 440i
Thnx man just continue with BMW peace 🔥
“Let’s make it fair” said no one ever
Most pointless and entertaining drag race I've watched in a really long time
Hello mat! I love ur channel so much and ur videos r amazing! I have a suggestion for u. Can u race a McLaren or a Lamborghini with a jet? I know it might be wierd😂
Nice video
We should have had the Bmw M4 Competition against the M8 Competition
th-cam.com/video/VB6t0ubJuY0/w-d-xo.html
M. Navet
Same story as the M4 really.. the M4 would of done a similar time as the M2
@@aidenp5768 ok
@@dexters697 V8 > L6
More suitable would be m5 vs m8
Ofcourse it will get drilled off the line even worse than it would have in THE WET!!
Cool videos as usual, but maybe upgrade your cameras haha
Matt you are a excelent driver 👏🏼👏🏼
"But let's be fair... The race wasn't the same without Yiannimize!"😂😂😂😂
The braking part looked so intense this time around
Great content as always, but why is everything filmed on low-quality action cameras?!
When the M8 started the water spraying off of its wheels looked like the sonic boom cloud that is seen on a jet's wings.
SINCERE REQUEST TO CARWOW
Please can the audio team increase the volume levels for the videos?
No need, just increase your volume on pc/mobile
@@luka. You don't say? Genius👏😂

Good man
Hey mate 😊, please bring M760i vs M8 competition into drag race, rolling race and break test, I would love to see that M-power challenge please man !!!
