Model his­tory

The BMW 850i (E31) replaced the 6 Series (E24) in the early 1990s and was posi­tioned as a lux­u­ri­ous flag­ship coupé. The body, designed by Klaus Kapitza, with pop-up head­lights, incor­po­rated styl­is­tic ele­ments from the BMW M1. Tech­ni­cally, the 8 Series was based in part on the 7 Series (E32) of the time.
Despite high expec­ta­tions, sales fell short of fore­casts; a total of around 30,600 units were built. There was no direct suc­ces­sor at first – it was not until 2003 that a large BMW coupé reap­peared in the form of the 6 Series (E63).
