I love that feature. It catches people off guard all the time, myself included. Here's an album of my brilliantrot 850i

Ooh, tough choice. E34's are awesome old school M. But E39's are pretty godly too. That exhaust note is incredible.

My pleasure! I can't shut up about this car :)

I'm in Mississauga and I work in North York near Don Mills and Eglinton!

I don't know about the M73 or the S70 or any of the new ones, but on the M70, there is zero benefit to putting in premium or mid grade. It's a low compression engine. Regular is fine and is what the manual recommends

The 850i got t-boned by a guy running a red light. After that happened, I went a few years before getting another 8. I didn't want a black or silver one but that's mostly what you'll find in North America. I looked every now and then. Hard to find a red one in my area. One day I came across the purple one I have now.

Yep, Mississauga. Near Toronto.

Mississauga :(

They're both kind of slouchy to be honest. From the factory, anyway. Swap in some bilsteins (pretty much the only aftermarket shock absorber you can get on these), install a strut bar and an LSD and it'll change the nature of the car, or so I've been told. If you've got the V12, get the Wokke V2 performance chips.

Truth be told, I like the 840Ci more. But I honestly believe that's because my 840 is a late model car whereas the 850i was an early 1991 vehicle. They made improvements to the electronics and some mechanical updates in 1994, as well as some improvement on luxury (better switch feel, suede headliner, etc.). As far as

Daytona. Wish it was techno, but I still like it. Incredibly rare colour on these cars, especially in North America

'97 840Ci. Used to have a '91 850i.

This one's the V8. A 1997 840Ci. Last year they sold them in North America. Used to have a 1991 V12 850i.

I'm only slightly ashamed to admit that my 8-series has been mistaken for a Probe before.

Why are they doing so poorly in Canada? I want to love Target, but they're not loving us back.

I'm not out to make mine look like an M car. I know it'll never be as quick or as nimble as one either. Though a CSi front bumper would be nice...

Goddamn this ad is annoying.

Oh don't worry dear, we'll take the Ferrari. Hello dear friends, mind if I park my Ferrari in front of your house? I need to get the oil changed on the Ferrari. I can't take the Ferrari to the grocery. Mondial is the name of Enzo's fourth son.

I find it very hard to have any sympathy for these two.
