636-600-4600 Another BMW 8 Series (E31) coupe has arrived at
MotoeXotica Classic Cars, this time an 850i. Built at BMW?s
Dingolfing, Germany factory, on March 6, 1991, this luxury coupe is
ready to coddle its next owner! This model is one of for North
American export and one of 1,711 examples built in 1991. The same
Californian owner has cherished this car since 2014, spending
thousands of dollars in refurbishment maintenance and upgrades, the
drives with an impressive response and handling.This vehicle left
the line equipped with the following options ? Electronic Damper
Control (EDC), leather steering wheel, electric tilt column, alarm,
lumbar support in front seats, provision for factor six-disc CD
changer and preparation for a BMW mobile phone
installation.Finished in Brilliant Red (code 308), the car?s paint
and trim are in overall very good order. There are a few blemishes
visible on close inspection. The glass panels are clear and intact
and the car?s lights, including the center high-mounted stoplight
in the back window, are in similar condition. The car?s bodywork is
solid and straight, its engine bay is tidy, the battery looks good
and the car?s integrated bumpers fit well to the rest of the car?s
body. This example is one of 83 models exported to North America in
Brilliant Red and it?s one of 700 units that came over with a
Parchment Leather interior.This car rolls on new Mayrun MR500
radials, size 245/35ZR19 in front and 275/30ZR19 in back. Each tire
surrounds a new, 19 inch lace-style alloy wheel.Under the hood is a
5.0L SOHC V-12 engine (code M70B50) backed by a rare Getrag 560G
six-speed manual transmission. The 8 Series offered the first V-12
engine mated to a rarely seen six-speed manual transmission on a
road car. It was one of the first vehicles to be fitted with an
electronic drive-by-wire throttle and the 8 Series was one of BMW's
first cars, together with the Z1, to use a multi-link rear axle.
This car has new dual batteries, too. Driver convenience features
include automatic climate control, power steering, power four-wheel
disc brakes with anti-lock, power windows, power locks, power
mirrors, power front seats, cruise control and a metal
sunroof.Inside, the car?s Parchment interior (code 356), is brand
new in excellent order. The new front buckets and rear bench seats,
the carpet, new headliner, rear package shelf and interior pillars
are all in excellent order. The four-spoke steering wheel with
driver?s airbag, instrument panel with digital gauges and inner
door panels are in a similar condition. Driver power seat is inop.
There?s even a BMW mobile phone nestled between the front seats.
Rounding off the interior is a Sony AM/FM stereo with CD player.
(No original radio)While computer-aided design (CAD) modeling
allowed the car's unibody to be eight pounds lighter than that of
its predecessor, the car was significantly heavier when completed
due to the large engine and added luxury items?a source of
criticism from those who wanted BMW to concentrate on the driving
experience. Some of the car's weight may have been due to its
pillar-less ?hardtop? body style, which lacked a ?B? post.Tools and
various books and manuals are included with purchase. Competition
to this BMW in 1991 included Acura?s NSX, Aston Martin?s Virage,
Chevrolet?s Corvette, Dodge Stealth R/T Twin Turbo, Ferrari?s 348
TB, Mercedes-Benz?s SL 500, Nissan?s 300ZX and Porsche?s 944 S2.If

college, why not come by MotoeXotica Classic Cars today and check
