1993 Bmw 850ci Base Coupe 2-door 5.0l on 2040-cars
Bristol, Rhode Island, United States
|
This 850 car is an absolute gem!!! Clean 2 owner car fax and never in any accidents. There aren't many cars
from the early 90s that could compete with the 850 in terms of performance or
style, and the 850 still looks contemporary. The long hood and short deck
emphasize the big V12 under the hood, and with folding headlights, the
shark-like profile definitely looks the part of the king of the street. With a
cost approaching six figures in 1993, you got paint that was far beyond basic
assembly line and it was definitely worth it, because this coupe still looks
fantastic. The exterior is diamond
black with gray leather. BMW's reputation for being performance-oriented
doesn't come by accident, and the sporting buckets are both supportive and
all-day comfortable, designed to hammer from Paris to Munich at triple-digit
speeds. Everything was standard, including power seats, windows, and locks,
climate control, a trip computer, and a powerful stereo that still impresses
today, it's a joy to run it through the gears. MSRP in 1993 was 87,250.
Everything on this car works and even came equipped with tear gas sensors (which
is pretty cool). I have all documents pertaining to the service that was
performed to the vehicle. The suspension was changed to Bilstein coils and
struts along with Eibach springs for better handling, computer chip was changed
to push 390 horsepower and the exhaust was customized for a deeper tone. Other
than that the vehicle is 100% stock. Below is a list of just
a few services performed on the 850:
Full engine tune, replaced fuel filter, new cabin filter, new spark plugs, valve adjustment, new 02 sensors, 2 new batteries, transmission fluid flush, valve cover replacement (gaskets), oil pan replaced, 2 new batteries and 4 brand new Dunlap tires. You will not find an 850 in better condition than my 1993 850ci. I pride myself on keeping up with all maintenance and preserving the condition of this car because of how special of a vehicle it is. This car is 100% in pristine condition both mechanically and cosmetically. |

BMW takes 30th Anniversary Edition M5 out to drift
Thu, 04 Sep 2014If you only look at the videos from BMW, it appears that the best way to celebrate the 30th birthday of the M5 is some smoky drifting, and it sure looks like a great way to mark the occasion to us. Now that the Bavarian brand's new 30th anniversary special edition is all set to hit the road, the most powerful M5 ever is getting it own chance to roast its tires on video, as well.
The M5 30th Anniversary Edition shouldn't have any problem hanging its rear end out, really. Under the hood, its twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 is turned up to 600 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque and can allegedly sprint to 60 miles per hour in a scant 3.7 seconds. That's pretty impressive for any sports car but especially for a sedan that can still carry four passengers comfortably cosseted in leather and Alcantara upholstery.
BMW is making just 300 of these celebratory models worldwide, and appropriately for the anniversary, only 30 of them are going to be available in the US. If the special M5 doesn't make your heart race, the video basks in a little nostalgia, as well, by showing off the original model for some historical context.
BMW Vision Future Luxury arrives in Beijing dressed to the nines
Sat, 19 Apr 2014Almost two weeks ago, we reported that BMW may be bringing a concept to the 2014 Beijing Motor Show that could herald a flagship 9 Series model that would be better suited to do battle with the tip-top of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class range than the current 7 Series. Well, here it is. This is the Vision Future Luxury Concept, and straight away, it looks suited to the role of ultra-luxury flagship.
In our original story, we reported that the Beijing concept would wear styling similar to the Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe that was shown in Villa d'Este nearly a year ago. Unlike that car, the Vision Future Luxury sports four doors, although its roofline plunges aggressively enough for it to be considered a four-door coupe. That doesn't mean it will compromise on rear-seat space, however. Judging by the length of the rear doors alone, this is a very large vehicle.
Its styling, though, is, as we reported, quite familiar. We can see the evolution of the Concours' concept's styling, with a narrower grille that still leads up into the hood. The thin headlights use BMW's Laserlight technology while retaining a shape similar to the Gran Lusso, and the lower intake is dominated by a carbon-fiber air deflector on both ends. BMW's Air Breather system can be found behind the front wheels, adding an accent along the lower portion of the doors. In back, organic LED lighting is used for the super-slim taillights.
2013 BMW R1200GS and HP4 duel at Circuito de Almeria
Wed, 05 Jun 2013The 2013 BMW HP4 is the track-ready version of the manufacturer's already mighty S1000RR, which puts the bike at the very tip top of the two-wheeled BMW food chain. The R1200GS, meanwhile, is intended to be a somewhat more utilitarian machine. Capable of conveying both rider and gear over vast distances and uncertain terrain, the big-boy GS is the Swiss army knife to the HP4's rapier. Or at least that's what we've always been led to believe. BMW recently rolled out some footage during a press launch that showed the R1200GS is actually no slouch when it comes time to sling around a road course.
The company threw both bikes on Spain's Circuito de Almeria for a little sparring match, and miraculously, the HP4 didn't just up and walk away from the R1200GS. From from it. Instead, the two stay tightly matched through most of the course before something surprising happens. We won't spoil the ending for you. Is it possible the rider on the HP4 still had some in reserve? Sure, but from the sound and look of things, neither bike was giving an inch. Check out all the video action below for yourself.
