Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States

"Most cars aren't a good investment. You're looking at one of the exceptions, right here. The BMW 8-series is destined for legendary selling prices, as they are becoming more rare and sought after. The technological advancements and ahead-of-its-time computerization that BMW employed in the 8-series is yet unmatched. The most sought after years would be the first year (1991) and the last year (1997) of U.S. production. The 8-series is a legend in its time and a wonder that future car enthusiasts will seek with fervor." This vehicle is an exceptionally well maintained example of the BMW Flagship 8-series. There is no cleaner, stronger or more beautiful 850i on eBay. A Low 139,000 miles for a 22 year-old car tells you that the car was enjoyed, but not abused. Since 2003, this vehicle has received over $20,000 in Mechanical and Performance Upgrades (Listed Below), and has been driven ONLY 5,000 Miles. Many engineering features of the 8-series were far ahead of the current technology, and BMW gained much acclaim for building a supercar that could not be touched by any other production car company. Dual Bank computerized technology, coupled with Fly by Wire acceleration, managed a V-12 power plant with efficiency, and a computer controlled transmission made sure that power got its claws into the asphalt. Technology that blows minds, and sexy lines that turn heads. With mileage so low (6,000 miles a year), you'd expect a mechanically sound vehicle, and that's exactly what you get. But the story of this vehicle's condition gets better. It is well known, among 8-series enthusiasts, that the transmissions will likely give you problems somewhere between 80,000 and 100,000 miles, especially now in their old age. Believe me, I know. My transmission was changed at 133,000 with a certified rebuilt transmission. This upgrade is priceless on these vehicles, and that's a benefit you won't see elsewhere here on eBay. MAKE SURE TO ASK ANYONE SELLING A BMW 8-SERIES TO TELL YOU IF THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN CHANGED. IF NOT, BEWARE. This vehicle's transmission has about 5,000 miles on it. About a couple years back, I noticed that the top end of the motor was noisy. I took it to my mechanic, who rebuilt the top end of the engine at 138,000. It was costly, especially for a non-necessity, but I felt it was worth it, and that's one more benefit I'm passing on to the next buyer. A REBUILT ENGINE IS A DEFINITE VALUE ON ANY CAR, LET ALONE A BMW V-12 ENGINE. HOW MANY OTHER BMW 8-SERIES ARE FOR SALE WITH REBUILT ENGINES? This Vehicle's top end has less than 1,000 miles on it. The paint on this car is absolutely gorgeous. It was repainted at around 135,000. But it wasn't your everyday normal paint job. The vehicle was literally broken down, painted and then put back together, to give a factory finish. And believe me, it's shiny and it's beautiful. THIS CAR TURNS HEADS EVERYWHERE. RED IS THE MOST VALUABLE COLOR ON THE BMW 8-SERIES. THIS VEHICLE WAS DISMANTLED AND RE-ASSEMBLED FOR A COMPLETELY FACTORY PAINT JOB IN ITS ORIGINAL BMW COLOR. A superb driving vehicle, with above average maintenance and a look that automatically draws attention. This vehicle has no known issues that affect its operation. Known issues, that are very inexpensive to correct, are listed below. If you need help locating any parts, I have many connections for parts and
The vehicle is in excellent condition, but it is being Sold AS-IS, with NO Warranty or Guarantee, expressed or implied. $500 non-refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of auction's end.

As long as a deposit is made, I will work with you as best I can, and within certain limits at my discretion. I want to see my vehicle pass on to somebody who will care for her as much as I have. This is a 100% Rare Collectible Car that Will only Increase in Value!
TOTAL UPGRADES VALUED AT $20,200 THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY FOR! $20,200 in upgrades in 10 years, and I have only put about 5,000 miles on this beautiful car in that time. It's going to be hard to see her go. Thank you for checking out my auction. Best of luck in your quest. |

Totally uncovered BMW M3 caught by helmet cam
Tue, 29 Oct 2013Sure, we've seen - and even ridden in - the 2015 BMW M3 before, but always under the cover of camouflage. Proving that it's always nice to be in the right place at the right time, a motorcyclist managed to capture a completely undisguised 2015 M3 (codenamed F80) on video during a closed-road photo shoot.
Road & Track has the helmet cam video, which shows the bright blue M3 doing a three-point turn as it follows a camera car possibly for an upcoming commercial or launch video. While the images are grainy, we do get to see some of the styling details for the next-gen M3. Aside from the extra set of doors, this M3 looks a lot like the Concept M4 Coupe we met a few months ago, including the bulging hood, oddly shaped door mirrors and the wide, vented front fenders. The aggressive fascia, big wheels/low-profile tires and quad exhaust outlets all but confirm this is the production M3 we'll be seeing at the Detroit Auto Show in a couple of months.
We've put together a gallery using screen shots from the video, but check out the video posted below to see the new M3 in motion.
BMW M4 Convertible spied with naked top and trunk
Mon, 10 Feb 2014Our trusty spy photographers have been at it again, snagging these first images of the forthcoming BMW M4 Convertible without camouflage on its retractable roof and rear deck. You'll recall that this is not the first time we've seen the followup to the M3 Convertible, but that the last batch of images we had were encumbered by a lot more camouflage - this car is virtually naked by comparison.
Not surprisingly, the M4 looks to share its folding hardtop design with the standard 4 Series droptop, and it should operate in a similar manner as well. It's no surprise, but it looks like BMW is going to try and make the transition from M4 Coupe to M4 Convertible as effortless as previous efforts converting the M3 to an M3 Convertible. That should mean that below the beltline, this car is nearly identical to the coupe we saw in Detroit.
As for the camo'd features on these spy photos, the hood, front fascia, rear fascia, quarter panels, side sills and mirrors have all been shown on the M4 Coupe, and don't really bear mentioning. There's been no word of just where the M4 Convertible will make its debut, although considering the lack of disguise on this car, Geneva seems like a likely destination.
VW Golf R pitted against BMW M235i in enthusiast's choice battle
Fri, 15 Aug 2014Most people don't have two, open spots in their garage to fit a practical daily driver and a fire-breathing performance car for the weekends. That's what makes vehicles like the latest Volkswagen Golf R and BMW M235i just about perfect for the average person. Both of these Germans can lope around as a commuter 90 percent of the time and be perfectly comfortable. However, when you want to walk in the door with a big smile on your face, you can take the back roads home and get a real thrill from them.
In his latest short video, Chris Harris from Drive tests these surprisingly comparable German performance cars. Both of them offer buyers in the neighborhood of 300 horsepower, with the BMW winning out with 320 hp. However, the Golf R gets standard all-wheel drive, which is now an option on the M235i. Harris has quite positive things to say about these Europeans, but you're going to have to watch the video to hear just what he thinks.
