What is the story behind the Bufori CS8?

The Bufori CS8 is a Malaysian-made ultra high-performance grand tourer launched in August 2025 after 10 years of development. It is built by Bufori Motor Car Company, a handcrafted car manufacturer based in Kepong, Kuala Lumpur, which has been producing bespoke vehicles for over 40 years. Each Bufori CS8 takes over 9,000 man-hours to build, which is 15 times longer than a Rolls-Royce. The car represents Bufori's shift from its sports car origins to a luxury grand touring brief. For buyers considering the Bufori CS8, that matters because it affects how easy the car is to live with, whether for commuting, family use, long-distance driving or ownership costs. The useful way to read this is not as an isolated specification, but as a clue to how the car will feel in real daily use.
