Model history
The BMW 850i was introduced in 1990 as the first model in the new E31 8 Series and was available with a 5.0-litre V12 engine (M70) with 300 hp. A 4-speed automatic or 6-speed manual transmission was available. In fall 1993, the 850i was renamed the 850Ci. From October 1994, these vehicles were fitted with the revised 5.4-litre V12 engine (M73) with 326 hp, which was also used in the BMW 750i. Models with the designation 850Ci can therefore have both engine variants, depending on the year of manufacture.

Comments of this past auction
Technik: "ein bayrischer Rennwagen" Die Technik und Motoren kamen teilweise vom damals aktuellen 7er, dem E32. Später wurden nach und nach neuere Motoren aus dem 5er und dem E38 eingeführt. Der E31 war bis zur Einführung des E38 L7 im Jahr 1997 das teuerste Modell im BMW-Programm. Der Verkauf blieb letztlich hinter den Erwartungen zurück, obgleich vor dem Serienstart etwa 5.000 Kaufverträge unterzeichnet worden sein sollen und die Lieferzeit beim Produktionsanlauf drei Jahre betrug: In zehn Jahren wurden (ohne die 18 BMW 830i, die niemals in den Verkauf gelangten, ohne die drei Cabrio-Prototypen und ohne den M8-Prototyp) 30.603 Exemplare des 8er gebaut. Der Absatz wurde durch die weltweite Rezession der frühen 1990er Jahre, den zweiten Golfkrieg und Energiepreiserhöhungen beeinträchtigt. Vor allem in den USA hatte BMW mit höheren Verkaufszahlen gerechnet, dort erwarteten die Käufer jedoch von solch einem schweren und teuren Fahrzeug mehr Leistung. 1997 beendete BMW dort den Absatz des Coupes. Einen Nachfolger für den 8er gab es zunächst nicht. Erst im Sommer 2003 ergänzte BMW seine Modellpalette mit einem größeren Coupé der oberen Mittelklasse, dem BMW 6er E63. Dieser basiert jedoch auf der 5er-Reihe und wurde günstiger als die konkurrierenden CL-Coupes von Mercedes-Benz angeboten. LG Tom
