I remember...When I first fall in Love w' a Bavarian

bavarian19 · 02-21-2010, 04:47 PM

I have been following the 3er since the early days of the E46 (pre-facelift).

The ZHP made me love it, and once I saw the first E90 out, I was sold. My E90 was my first BMW, and now my E92 my second. I plan on keeping my E92 until the day it dies.

that red 850 w the LM's is just beautiful

It's kinda F40-esque. Love it

PIMP "E" · 02-21-2010, 06:15 PM

the 850 is nice to have but a pain at the same time

plusplustutoring · 02-21-2010, 06:21 PM

850csi is one of my all time favorites

Your Dad is a lucky man- beautiful car. Very clean and agressive design, much like the E92....

that car is stunning.

uga12388 · 02-22-2010, 01:26 AM

love the 8's, very rare car indeed

Have only seen a few on the road ever even living in a metropolitan city like ATL

What I found shocking was that select luxury. www.selectluxury.com in my area has 2 8's for sale in their inventory.

1991 850i - white 96k
http://www.selectluxury.com/web/1972...rietta-Georgia

AND

1994 850 - black 106k
http://www.selectluxury.com/web/1972...rietta-Georgia

even after all these years the interior still looks stunning to me

I'd definitely jump on that, especially the Csi if I could.

i remember the nazca c2 from one of the old NFS games...maybe NFS3 aka Hot Pursuit? someone help me out

is it me, or does the koenig kit give the rear quarter an f40-style look, esp with the side scoop and the wing?

I was just going to post the same thing. I live in Marietta and regularly cruise Select just to see what's on the lot. Good stuff!

Matski · 02-22-2010, 12:13 PM

The M8 prototype still exists but is currentley a non-runner.

BMWCar magazine in the UK did a piece on it last month including new photography and a full explanation of the car.

midnite · 02-22-2010, 01:36 PM

theres a csi close to where i live, i see it all the time during the summer, it looks really nice, looks like its in mint condition as well

cotmfk · 02-22-2010, 08:42 PM

Used to love those! I was close to getting an 840 at some point. Never panned out.

T89 · 02-22-2010, 09:54 PM

I love the 8er

That's what initially attracted me to BMW. Then I found out about the ///M cars

That car still looks sick.

Scorpion · 04-02-2010, 04:39 PM

I know this is a thread revive, but I saw a 850i today. Oh man that thing was so amazing looking. It was in the lane right next to me, damn wish I could see it up closer lol.

Here some crappy Pixx i take from the 8 Series Cabriolet i took at BMW Classic. It was a Heartbeat away from Production

emkmd · 07-22-2014, 09:21 PM

Way back when maybe '90/91 my father got a great looking silver 850i. It had good power, a bit heavy.
Check out this M8 that never made it to production:
