[s-cars] Wed eve NAC anyone?

Good read...  In deference to the rag-god David E. Davis famous quote "You haven't lived a complete automotive life, until you've owned a 12 cylinder automobile", I just drive every single one I can.  The 850i is certainly in my tops of that heap, reminded me of a gentleman's 928S4 in how it amassed speed without drama.  That said, the styling for me hasn't hit the mark since inception...  But that may be due to my pine-of-like era, for a '88 testarossa in the requisite red/tan.  The 850 takes the internal styling comparatively, but when driving one of these 12bangers, isn't it how you look from the outside in?  Alas, I believe DED is right, with 12 thumping pistons, at the end of the day, driving your 'second' car, does it really matter where those 12 pistons were inserted?

Been awhile since I spam'd youses alls with random randomness and awesomitude.



Neat one just showed up, had to share:



'91 850ci (yep, V12'er)

6spd

50k

red/blk

2owners, 1 from 13k, extensive records, impeccable condition.  Smells & looks 

new - time capsulesque.



midish teens (round up not down)



So the guy traded it on an '07 ///M6 mit 40k.  Metallic black/blue, light grey 

gut mit sexxaay CF trim, SMG, $105k sticker.  Of cHOORse now... it simply just 

_couldn't be_ there w/o proper & entirely obligatory PKJNR approval endorsement 

opp, nope.  Muwhahahahaha.



Dayum, I liked that thing better than I thunk I would.  Despite whirling the e60 

///M5 other times, I'd simply forgotten how necessary / requisite 500hp is to 

have in your life.  WOWWY it's fast, and I'll be damned it's Newton defying 

(Isaac, not Fig).  FAWWWWK it's fast, and absorbs the worst surfaced and 

tightest roads in mockery.  Your stopped.  Your going abillion.  You're stopped.  

Plenty of smellygoodburnout en-route, and completely involving, which is a 

refreshing departure from the isolated & robotic cars nowadays are.



Oh and heads up display FTMFW.



Gotta say, *that* sure is a heckuvatonnacar for the doughrayme - figure low/mid 

$40k's.  Ah, glorrrrrrrrious depreciation.  Neat stuff.



Shamefully, I've yet to have even sat in an 850 - go figure?  Looking forward to 

an opp soon - like.. say, tomorrow (more muwhahaa)...



ANYwho...  happy Wed eve ladies!  And, Happy Upcoming HO to youses allski!



-Paul still looooove every iotoa of a millisecond in Alumibitch but still enjoy 

a good Bimmer (but not Bimwads) K.
