General Comments
It is hard not to compare the BMW 850 CSi line of cars with performance cars from the here and now. In its original form it was designed to cover large stretches of land in a short amount of time. Get it on the freeway and even newer super cars with gobs of horsepower have trouble keeping up. The off the line performance will have you looking at rear end re-tooling and low end torque improvements. But off the line is not what this car is about. If you want to go long distance in the most comfortable sports coupe to come from Germany this is the car. Watch the repair record or lack thereof. What you do not know will cost you on this car. Six to eight thousand a year is not out of the question on aging models and heaven help you in the event of even the most minor fender bender. Every one you see go by is someone's labor of love.
