    The BMW Skytop is taking its time getting here, but it is coming.

    Delivery of the production version of the Z8-inspired concept is scheduled to begin in early 2026, according to BMW Blog. That time frame is a little longer than previously anticipated.

    The report comes a few months after BMW’s head of design, Adrian van Hooydonk, said the customers would be driving the exclusive convertible before the end of 2025. But the new timing does make sense, as the 8 Series, which the Skytop is based on, is expected to be discontinued some time next year. That would make the gorgeous speed machine the sports car’s swan song.

    Representatives for BMW did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Robb Report.

    If the Skytop ends up being one of the final current 8 Series models, it would be quite the way for the car’s second generation to go out. Unveiled last May at the Villa d’Este Concorso d’Eleganza, the two-seater features a sculptural look that includes an aggressive front end with razor-thin headlamps, a central spine that runs from the hood to the deck lid, and the removable roof panels that give it its name. The final design won’t be identical to that of the concept, but it’s expected, thankfully, to be awfully close.

    BMW has yet to say what kind of powertrain will be under the hood. Since making its debut, the expectation has been that it will feature a mill similar to that found in the twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V-8 found in the M8 Competition. That engine makes 617 hp and 553 ft lbs of torque, which suggests the production model will be fast.

    We’re also still waiting to find out just how much the Skytop will end up costing. It has been reported that the car starts at €500,000, or roughly $579,000 by today’s exchange rates, which is $420,000 more than the starting price of the range-topping M8 Competition Convertible. That price would also make it one of the marque’s most expensive factory-built models of all time. Another recent few-off, the reimagined 3.0 CSL, started at $750,000, but has sold for well over that on the secondary market.

    Whatever the Skytop’s cost, it does not appear to have dissuaded interested parties. The entire 50-car run sold out last year before the model had even been confirmed for production. Fortunately, for those who missed out, it’s only a matter of time until one makes its way to auction.
