It wasn't the first:
The front end styling was taken from the BMW M1 from the late '70s.
The 8-series oozes class, it was built to complete with the Benz SL. They're very big, very heavy, and the V12 versions are very fast.
An 840i or 850i can be had for not much money today, considering what they cost new, but they're very expensive to maintain, like the similar vintage 7-series but even more complicated.
