Would you believe I still have this issue in storage?

Absolutely loved this car!

Thanks for the article! This truly is one of greatest sport coupés of the latest decades. Unfortunatley it's rather rare, because I prefer its looks over the 6 series ... will we get a real successor once??

The 850csi was and is still a car I'd love to own.

Hope the new 8-series coupoon (coupe-saloon) will be even better.

A few years ago, there were rumours that a 850i with a M5 engine was built for a BMW director (reputed to be for Wolfgang Reitzle). But he left BMW before he took delivery. Car was said to have been stored in BMW's basement carpark for many years. Maybe it has been scrapped by now.

i have a similar thought in my mind these days. I want to invest in a classic Bimmer, too, most probably a 2002..

But my father says there's no point in paying for an old car (he already doesn't like my classic cars addiction), and the wife prefers spending money in clothes rathers than old Bimmers, and i don't have anymore room in my garage (i already put three cars in a two cars garage...
