There's one for sale in Texas.... they're still fetching $60k. I can get a POS 850i for $15k though and put M badges all over it

 

Do it! That's a hot ass car. For those who aren't aware:

 

Look around NC. 850Csis got no respect there for some reason. I remember seeing one for $25k just 3 years ago, and their popularity hasn't really come up.

 

To claify the 850ci can be hand for high teens to lower 20s, but the 850Csi is a different animal. They have an M-division build V12 and a manual trans. They're very rare.

 

I'm well aware of the difference. Trust me, they got no love in NC. Basically what would happen is people would buy them, then realize they can't afford to maintain them. You just have to find one that is in the sticks. Kinda hard from VA because those guys seem not to understand that they should put the ad in a newspaper.

 

Yeah I'm not serious about buying one.... but I've always liked them. I remember BJ Surhoff (sp?) the Orioles player had a black one. I was waiting w/ my little brother for autographs one day and saw it.

 

well the good news is chris bangle moved on to other things so fucked up looking dame edna cars should be on the decline.

 

Thank god.

 

335i all the way.
