Soooo, we have The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly… I'll list some of the features for those who aren't familiar, but as most are aware the 8-series has a fairly loaded base model.
THE GOOD:
1990 BMW 850i
5.0L V-12 Engine
92,776km, last 5000 km were highway kilometres.
Euro Model, “flash to pass” high beams stay on with regular highs (that means six forward facing lights including fogs will stay on at once!!!). Also has rear fog lights and all other euro advantages.
Automatic
Diamond Black exterior
Black leather interior
Stability control (ASC)
Automatic (one touch) power moonroof
Speed sensing intermittent wipers
One touch power windows
Power locks
Power Trunk
Power driver and passenger seat
Memory driver seat
Power, heated mirrors with auto defrost
Heated windshield washer nozzles
Two-stage heated seats
Heated headlight washer nozzles
Factory command start program for on board computer
Auto windows and moonroof operated by key from door lock.
Pirelli P-700Z tires
Stock Brembo brakes
Four wheel disc brakes with ABS
Dual Climate Control w/AC (blows cold)
Auto titling right side mirror
Only summer driven
Two brand new batteries
All pixels on the OBC are functional
Paint is in outstanding condition. Once cleaned and polished up it looks in new condition.
Shifts nicely between all gears.
No noises or clicking from suspension parts on speed bumps.The Bad:
Front tires are great (approx 70%, but just guessing from looks), back ones need to be replaced sooner rather then later.
Some paint chips on hood and bumper, but no rust anywhere.
Wheels have no curb rashes but some scuffs from changing tires.
Car was stored for a few years (indoors) before I purchased it. (I view this as bad)
Recent inspection by BMW dealership pulled a fault code on an o2 sensor. I guess it only showed it had “faulted” twice but had never “failed”, so I would imagine that it would need replacing eventually.
Small scrape and dent on FL fender. Has been touched up and power polished by a professional, but the damage is still evident if you are looking for it.
RF fender was repainted due to keying incident… looks amazing with new paint blended into body lines. The painter told me that he could notice the minimal color difference, but I couldn’t… It looks perfect.
Door ding on LR quarter panel
Some scrapes on FL bumper. They were repainted (professional, not touch-up) but the bumper wasn’t replaced so the scrapes are still evident upon inspection…
Tool kit in trunk is missing a few items.
First Aid kit in the back seat compartment is missing.
Incomplete service records
The headliner is separating from the backing in some places. Not torn, just separating. Caused by highway winds...The Ugly:
NOTHING, this car is beautiful but I like my Skyline too and one has to be traded in for a ring… Beautiful car, amazing to drive, fast, quiet and smooth on the highway.
This car is not in 100% mint condition, but I would say it is in outstanding condition for its age. Was my daily drive till I parked it for sale...
Located in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
