Just a few days after his 30th birthday and his second-place finish at the ‘Dream Race’ at Fuji, BMW DTM driver Marco Wittmann had another highlight to look forward to. On Thursday, the two-time DTM champion was present to receive his new company car at BMW Welt in Munich: a BMW M8 Competition Coupé (fuel consumption in l/100 km (combined): 10.6; CO2 emissions in g/km (combined): 242).

“I have been looking forward to my new company car for a long time. I was able to drive the BMW M8 Competition at the international media event in Portugal and I loved it straight away,” said Wittmann. “It never ceases to amaze me how BMW M sets new standards with each car. The BMW M8 Competition Coupé has got motorsport genes. For me, it is important to emphasise this sportiness. That is why I made the conscious decision to choose the matt ‘Individual Frozen White’ colour scheme, as this really helps the BMW M Performance Parts and the many exterior and interior carbon elements to come into their own. I really like the contrast and I think that it gives the car perfect look. The all-wheel drive also makes this car perfect for winter driving.”
