my favourite car in the world.....

but i cant afford one.....

with a 5 Litre engine, it makes owning one in scotland pretty much impossible.....1GBP for 1 litre of petrol

it would drain your wallet faster than amsterdam hookers....

850 does not have enough horsepower(300) for a 5 liter. m3 is a 3.2 liter and its got 340 horsepower.

i love bmw i own one myself. but that 850 is just for rich people. its fucking 1850 kilo's heavy. the taxes are enormous for that weight. i dont know where you live? and i imagine how much gas it uses, but still it would be a bad choice cause its just not fast enough for such a heavy car.

did you know that bmw has gotten awards for best engine's for the last 3 years. i think bmw is now the most popular brand around the world, better then mercedes. but still in the same league i quess.

If you think most of the people on this board can afford an 850i, you're dreaming.
