Beware people...
It's not a 8K redline, but a near-8K RPM redline! In marketing terminology, 7700 RPM is also near-8K redline...

Even if it would have 'only' 7700 RPM, that would still be an achievement, compared to the 7000 RPM redline of the current 3L turbo petrol BMW engine (N55), which the new M3 engine will be based upon.
