Bufori Launches CS8, A Handbuilt Malaysian GT With 810-HP Supercharged V8

The low-volume coupe debuts as a bespoke grand tourer priced from RM2.188 million.

Overview

  • The rear-drive CS8 pairs a 6.4-litre supercharged Hemi V8 with an eight-speed automatic for claimed 0–100 km/h runs in 3.0 seconds and a 330 km/h limited top speed at an estimated 1,550 kg.
  • The car is handbuilt in Kuala Lumpur with an estimated 9,000 hours per unit, reflecting Bufori’s boutique manufacturing approach.
  • The carbon‑kevlar body rides on 19‑inch forged wheels and features Brembo brakes with 380 mm front and 350 mm rear rotors, plus a modern tech suite including a 13.6‑inch touchscreen and driver assists.
  • Buyers can choose alternative powertrains, including a naturally aspirated 6.4‑litre V8, supercharged or naturally aspirated 3.6‑litre V6 options, and a twin‑turbo 3.0‑litre straight‑six rated at 550 hp.
  • Bufori says roughly 10% of components are sourced from Stellantis with the rest produced locally, and it has not clarified pathways for sales outside Malaysia.
