    I finally found the holy grail of BMWs. I've owned 3 other 8 series BMWs (all of them 840s). I just bought a 1995 Black on Black BMW 850 CSi and am thrilled to own and drive it. I was fortunate to have found one with 28,000 original miles and in perfect condition. For that privilege I paid top d ...

    The BMW 8 Series 850 CSi is a classic timeless styling with great performance for a hefty car. I finally found the holy grail of BMWs. Having owned 3 other 8 series vehicles (all 840s), I continue to love the classic styling of this car. The 850CSi is a different animal than the others. I was fo ...

    I have owned my 91 BMW 850i 6 speed 12 cylinder beast for 5 years and I get into the car just to drive when ever it is sunny and dry. The power in every gear is truly amazing and all the systems still work perfectly including the sound system.

    I would really like to see a v12 engine on the new M3 body. A v12 engine that propels this car, it is cheaper than other v12 cars, like other BMW cars the suspension train is sweet and lets not forget the good looks.

    I looked for a used BMW 850 CSi for a long time and finally found one and fell in love with it instantly. What a rush it gives you when you have the opportunity to really do what it was designed to do; handle the curves beautifully with power to spare. Have owned many fine autos and this is the b ...

    Development of the 8 series was over the top - 5 years. BMW pumped no less than 1 billion DM into it. Some even tag the car as 'over-engineered'. Well it shows. It's superbly built (definitely not Bangled ;-)

    The wedge-shaped body oozes style and the design has aged well. It's not uncommon for pe ...

    I have owned the BMW 850 CSi for 2 years now, I bought it second hand for £8,500 and I have to say it is one heck of a roadster. It is a gorgeous looking powerful motor. It has 380bhp and 4 massive exhausts on the back making it a really fast car. So I would reccomend this car over most Ferrar ...

    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 of ...

    I saw this 850 sitting inside a classic car showroom alongside a 328 GTS Ferrari (red of course). I climbed inside and out of both cars, drove each one and guess what? I bought the 850! At first I thought maybe I blundered but after learning how to drive this vehicle, yes, this car has to be learnt ...

    Owned an 850 for 2 years now, bought used for a little under £9500, about the price I would have paid for a new low spec ford fiesta. For that money I got a head turning, motor way storming luxury cruiser of impeccable quality. Just amazing. Get the six speed manual to have real fun (accelerat ...
