Yeah i took it using a phone cam. carrying a digital slr is such a hassle. ;)
@Gis It's a 5.4 V12, i', pretty sure. They are a god damn rare car over my side... i might see one a month if i'm lucky, but the amount od 6-series soon makes up for it :)

A rare and beautiful BMW indeed. I remember some part of the Macca's engine cost more than the V12 banger in the 850..I think it was the air intake. :mrgreen:

SPEED: I also saw your post and I though... "they're farking mind readers them JWers". The orientation of the 850i makes it difficult to do a drive by shootings (unless you want to see the ars all the time) ala the way TT does his sightings.
I had to look around so no one'll spot me taking photos of the car. It amazes me how in frame the shots were done seeming I didnt look at the preview on my LCD.

What is all this talk of drive by shootings!! :mrgreen:

Taking photos from inside my car. :D When I saw this car from the rear I was scratching my head thinking "BMW 850i, WTF?" I never heard of the 8 Series from BMW and then I remembered Whalberg's "Italian Job" had a character driving a similar looking car so I just took the snaps away. Heck I even ignored the old MG and Ferrari 355 parked beside it. :)

Yeah, the E31 is a very hard to come by vehicle. The silver one i posted along with the E24 M6 is still at my shop.
Unfortunatley the 850's only came with an automatic, so if you wanted a maual you would have to go with an 840. they have a very sleek look to them, until you get to the oversized tail lights. But they were a VERY heavy car.
i am really hoping BMW brings the 8 series back. i would love to see what they would do with it, and i'd love to get behind the wheel of an 860Csi :twisted: the 760Li already hauls balls, so if they were to drop the N73B60 into something lighter.....::EVIL LAUGH::
