    You Missed it!! Better in person!!
    The M8 Prototype was at the Legends of the Autobahn, Aug 2012 in Monterey,CA.
    A bunch of the 8's from this forum attended and we couldn't take our eyes off the M8. Near the end we actually got to touch it.

    For those of us who missed seeing it in the metal (so to speak), the article posted above isn't half bad, so thanks for that Mike.
    I used to get a surrogate M8-fix on a regular basis, by attending race meetings here in NZ - Venus is her name, and yeah baby, she's got it!
