You know what? After all the photos I took, none of them are a clear shot of my my Dad's 850i. Not sure how that happened. I also realize now that I should have downsized the photos slightly to fit better on the page. If you look at photos 1 and 3 and scroll over to the right, you will see the nose of his car. It is a 1991 with only 58,000 miles, Calypso red, with a bone gray-ish interior (not sure of exact color), Remus Exhaust and performance chip. It got tons of looks and comments. I personally love the car, but was very surprised how many people commented on it. Especially, with all the other nice cars there. I will say that nearly 20 years after this car was made, BMW still doesn't make a car that has the street presence of the 8 series. It is such a big, wide coupe that it just demands attention. We actually got two thumbs up just driving to Oktoberfest from non-BMW drivers.

Next time I am at my parents house, I will try to remember to snap a few photos of the car and update this thread.

:iagree: One of my favorite BMWs. Hopefully the next 6-series or the CS if goes into production will have street presence like 850. The thought of buying a 850CSi has crossed my mind several times. The cost of maintenence pushes it away. :)
